Di, me too on maps and dictionaries, I even read the bi-lingual assembly instruction & compare them to the English version..in hopes I might learn something? When I see maps I look at fun routes off the interstates to get from point A to B, then research the towns that would be gone through. Seldom fo these trips happen but, it's fun to plan an escape even if it's only for an afternoon of considering it. I like my cookbooks that have personal stories or coments from the submitter with the recipes. Say, do you get the Kraft Food & Family magaizne? You can sign up for it online it's free & sent out 4 times a year I think. DH & I enjoy it and most recipes are reasonable & naturally using Kraft products. Speaking of DH, being paged! He so needs a hobby. LOL
