Default Nobody buys printed cookbooks anymore!

When looking for recipes there days I tend to look online before I check
my cookbooks. I also get a lot of good recipes out of newspapers and
magazines. I try them and if they are good I type them up and save them.


Lately I have found several cookie recipes that use canola oil instead
of saturated fats, which I am not supposed to eat anymore. A few weeks
ago there was a recipe in a newspaper for triple chocolate brownie
cookies that looked healthy enough. They turned out to be delicious. The
recipe is a keeper.
