Ow.

I have for the first time done what is colloquially known as "throwing my back out". bard_bloom is taking the boy to preschool while I wait for the ibuprofen to kick in. Mopey and wishing I had some other muscle relaxants here, and ow.

I guess maybe the warranty ran out at 40. I feel too young for this.

Ow.

There's an article in the Wall Street Journal today about the current wave of cook-through food blogging, where the blogger cooks every recipe of a particular cookbook in succession. I've been thinking of doing one of these for a while. Not sure if the national coverage makes it ridiculous-trendy now, or if it's still the good kind of crazy. In any case, I kind of still want to do it.

If I did, anyone have a great idea of some cookbook you think you'd like to see me do? It probably shouldn't be too classic (ie I want to maybe be the first to cook it through), or too random (I should expect many of the recipes to be pretty good), and it should be mostly a main-dish cookbook (I don't want to make cookies every day for a year). It should contain mostly ingredients I'm likely to be able to get on the East Coast.
