After reading A Cooks Tour and Kitchen Confidential, I'm thinking it's definately gonna be a must have. <br />What I would fight til the death for? Well they're not exactly cookbooks, but Vouge Entertaining + Travel. I have almost every issue since 1996 (lol, yeah, slightly obsessed) and my family are under strict instructions to mail future copies to me when I go to live in China sometime this month.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
