Stacking the Shelves #137, Sunday Post #134, Sunday Salon #128

Hey bookish friends! How are you doing? It was a pretty long week, but overall good. This morning my husband and I are going on a hike, and I am really looking forward to it. Later I will be going through a bunch of cookbooks I got from the library, trying to find low histamine and anti-inflammatory recipes. Other than that, no solid plans for the weekend, which I am thrilled about 😃

Stacking The Shelves is all about sharing the books you are adding to your shelves, may it be physical or virtual.This means you can include books you buy in physical store or online, books you borrow from friends or the library, review books, gifts and of course ebooks! And audiobooks. The Stacking the Shelves meme is hosted at Reading Reality.

Obviously, a bunch of my library holds came in again this week. Have I mentioned lately how much I LOVE our library system? I am thrilled to have so many cookbook options for our dietary needs, now to hope they are helpful, LOL!  I finished four books and DNFed one this week.

  1. Good luck with finding good stuff in the new cookbooks! We're so bad at actually using our cookbooks at home, ahaha.

  2. I love flipping through cookbooks for inspiration and getting them from the library is a bonus. If I love it I might buy it, but if not I didn't waste money.

  3. I’ve been a library no-show for a while, but you remind me how great their cookbook collection is. I used to like to sit and browse without necessarily even checking them out. I have to get myself back to using the library. The pandemic changed so much!

  7. Anti0inflammatory cook book I need to look for one. I can tell when inflammation flares up and it has been flaring recently. Ugh.

    1. Anne, I have had multiple health issues over the years and have been consistently working with a functional medicine doctor to find healing. I need these cookbooks!

  8. As a fan of the show American Ninja Warrior, that book caught my eye. I might have to see if I can find a copy at the library to read. It would be interesting even though I am definitely too old to do well on the show. (Not to mention very afraid of heights, so it was never a possibility for me.)

    1. Mark, we love the show, so when I saw they had a book, I knew I had to grab it and flip through it. I am always amazed at how well the contestants do, and I feel like I am not doing enough with my life, LOL!

  10. I am so fortunate to live where I have access to the libraries in my county as well as the libraries in Houston and its county. I can find almost any book through one of my libraries.

    I especially love to check out cookbooks from the library. Good luck with your quest.

    1. Erin, I can't use it because it uses a lot of almond and coconut flours, and I am sensitive to those, but if you can, definitely check it out.

    1. Meezan, I do take breaks from the library to read what's on my shelves, really trying to get the unread number down. But, I do love the library. I tried a new recipe tonight and it was a winner ;)
