Where do you find your recipes?

I don't know if this is a new phenonomum or not, but everyone is after recipes! Sweet, sour, Greek, spicy, quick, Crock-pot, and many others. So where do you find your recipes?

I have a family cookbook from my mother's side of the family. Many times I take them and make them my own. I also picked up a recipe book from Venice when we visited. It's a challenge to follow a recipe, they say things like a glass of wine, or a spoonfull of vinegar. Basically I play with those too.

Today, instead of a recipe, I thought I'd share my favorite on-line sources, some I use more than others. Some you have to create an account. I never use anything I have to pay for though!

Vacation food

My husband and I just returned from our anniversary trip. Now, I'm all about the food and our resort had several restaurants to choose from. I was so excited. However, the Italian was sort of Italian and the French was sort of French, etc. If you get what I mean. So the food was good but not great. I had really wanted to bring back a new recipe to share. Alas, that did not happen.

We were able to sample some Dominican food on our excursion to a small village in the mountains. It was rice and beans, yucca, and something that looked like, well it was spaghetti and meat sauce. Tasted good but I thought, huh?

Anyway, I'm going to experiment with some recipes for Dominican food and if they turn out I'll share. Meanwhile, I'm trying to line up some authors who like to cook and will share their secret recipes with us. So, stay tuned.
