looneytoons for looneyspoons

All of the recipes I made this week were from The Looneyspoons Collection, by Janet & Greta Podleski, which I picked up at Costco during boxing week. A bit of an impulse buy, but it turns out that so far it has been a good purchase, since I'm using it (to justify the purchase a bit, I have used their cookbooks before, when I worked with Jenna, so I knew I liked using their recipes)! I sat down with it to start planning last week's meals and ended up picking every recipe from it. Why not? One resource to consult, and they're all healthy recipes. The only drawback, perhaps, is that this is not an entirely cost-effective, nor environmentally sound way to plan a menu, especially with the abundance of fresh ingredients called for. I'm giving myself leeway there for the moment, since I will be hard pressed to spend more on groceries than we have been on eating out, and groceries are much less wasteful than fast food, that's for sure! Also, we are cutting waaaaay back on the meat consumption here and that is something that has a BIG environmental impact (not to mention how much healthier it is!).

I'm not an expert on copyright infringement, but I'm thinking it's probably not kosher to copy published recipes, word for word (or even 'adapt' them) and post them on your blog. However, if some one ate something I made and wanted the recipe, and asked me if I had one for something in particular, I would gladly write it out for them or email it, so... what's the difference? I guess the difference is that when you post something publicly on the internet anybody can google it. So, I am not going to post the actual recipes, but if you read this and want one, let me know.

I didn't take any pictures: bor-ing! I will try to whip the camera out next week, at least for the finished product.
