So are we all members of The Good Cook Club?

After reading this thread, I think I need to allow them to send me a book at least once a month.

Total aside here, but I've had nothing but problems with the Good Cook book club and wouldn't recommend it to anyone. Can't wait to buy my final book and have done with it.

Add 150 for me (I bought my first cookbook 3 years ago, when I got married). Nearly every week brings another cookbook (does God put them in my path?) and another threat to my marriage

I am not a member, so I didn't want want to badmouth Good Cook. But almost everything I have heard from friends bears out what JAZ said. Does my saying that make me a bad person?

I have 150, but am totally put to shame by those of you over 1000. I will do my very best to catch up!

Some of my most interesting cookbooks I've picked up at used bookstores, garage sales, or the library's annual sale.

It's every eGulleteer's duty!

who needs books when you have egullet?

i guess i probably have about 50. i'd guess that i'm made recipes from only about 10% of those.

[Belmont3]

I can add a signed Andre Soltner Letuce Cook Book to the collection, as of this weekend

Tommy, you are right in every way. But a new cookbook is a new world.

Or, at least, pretty.

[indiagirl]

wine books count?
that's another 10 for me.

Oh, well, since you've brought that up -- do we get bonus points for signed books?

24, 410.

Sorry, JAZ. I wish I'd thought about bonus points to make it more interesting!
Too late now. But I am jealous.

[indiagirl]

+3 for me, maggiethecat

:)

[torakris]

and another 3 for me as well!

[Suzanne F]

I just ordered 2 more

[JAZ]

Two more here.

[maggiethecat]

That's 24, 418. I've been converting the totals into miles. I wonder how many tons? Hmmmm.

[indiagirl]

i've ordered three more but they're not here yet

this thread is bringing to the surface an untapped addiction in my personality!
in combination with the favorite cookbooks thread it may prove to be lethal to my finances.

no matter, circumnavigating the globe, making it to the moon are far more important.

if it's good enough for jfk and jules verne, it's good enough for me.

Dear Indiagirl:

Even though you are still waiting impatiently for your books, I'll add them now. 24,421.

And you're right. It's an addiction. But one that can be so easily rationalized!
