So i just wanted to say Hi and I dunno see if I can find or ask for
some beginner advice, tips, books, etc.

Here are a couple of links from the rec.food.cooking FAQ:

* http://www.reluctantgourmet.com/
Cooking guide for beginner cooks.

* http://www.azcentral.com/home/food/cooking101/
Cooking 101.

As far as I am concerned, no cookbook is better written than _Cooking
with Pomiane_ by Edouard de Pomiane.

Thanks for the info! And of course I will check out the local library
too this weekend.



A word of advice: Using groups.google as your newsserver gets you
automatically killfiled by a lot of people. Yes, I see that you are
posting from a bank which probably does not allow installation of
unauthorised software and blocks NNTP connections. Still there are ways
around that, especially if you are willing to pay a bit of money. For
example, a basic NewsGuy account is $39 a year and you can use their
Web-based newsserver, which is nothing special, but does offer a
rudimentary killfile. The yearly basic NewsGuy rate is not listed on
their Web site and has to be requested by e-mail.

Yeah, I use GG because I can't install (nor would I) newsreader app at
my job. It's not *that* important. And at home, well I used to use
Forte Agent but I no longer have time at home like I used to. So if
people miss my posts because of filtering, well I'll just have to live
with that. ;-)
