After announcing I was going to publish volume 2 of Recipes from the Kitchen of a Frugal Non-Cook based on my continuing experiments with cooking, I don't see another cookbook in all this because while I have
expanded my repertoire, I have not elevated my cooking skills. I can still burn water.
Over the last few years, I tried to expand my cooking skills while still using a hotplate and a microwave.
I did increase my menu options to include: mug recipes, toast toppings, popsicles, salsas, crazy salads, slaws, and more.
Also, thoroughly enjoyed all the recipe and cookbook searches and research. Found a few gems like The Great Little Cookbook and Jack Monroe's cookbooks and website.
Learned to make a grilled cheese and peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, and mac & cheese multiple ways.
Got more comfortable using substitutions and spices even if I got it wrong sometimes.
While I don't have another cookbook yet, I have enough ideas to continue writing about cooking for a long time.
Plus, I am expanding my topic choices to include a Staycation series, more articles about writing and publishing, and more.
