some of my faves as well...lately my thing has been finding old cookbooks at garage sales. that copy of joy of cooking is from 1964 and has notes scribbled on almost every page. obviously i've never made anything from the french laundry cookbook, but it's nice to look at. the butte heritage cookbook is a collection of ethnic recipes from one of the most badass towns in american history, and virtually all of my childhood favorites came out of it. i also have a rachel ray book that my wife likes and a ton of shitty books i got at tjmaxx for two bucks apiece.

I love old cookbooks as well. My grandmother's Joy of cooking is about to fall apart. She has so many recipes stuffed in it and notes written on the pages. I found a first american edition Gastronomique on ebay for $15 shipped. It even has the dust jacket.
