How often do you use cookbooks vs. free online recipes?

For me it has changed over time. When I was starting out I used free online recipes more, because I placed more value on reviewer feedback as to whether the recipe worked and was worth making. As I became more skilled and a developed a better intuition for cooking, I didn’t need to rely as much on reviews, and instead my goal shifted to finding inspiration or exploring a specific niche in more depth. For this reason I’ve enjoyed cookbooks more in recent years.

I specifically put different cookbooks on my Christmas list for inspiration & introduce me & others to the flavors of the world!
Marcus Samuelson's "the Rise" is an amazing cookbook & read. I learned how to make my own Sambal and so many other recipes to try.
Someone gave me a New Mexico cooking school cookbook and I made my own red & green sauce authentically.
Your local library likely has many if you don't want to spend the money.
Happy Cooking!

Advice and/or consolation anyone? My wife and I (both above average health 30year olds) were trying for 11 months before getting pregnant and then had a week 5 early miscarriage a few months back. If the stress and surprise of just how difficult it apparently is to get pregnant wasn’t enough, the miscarriage put us over. We got back to it and have been trying for the last 2 months again, still no luck. We’re freaking out… all we want is a family. Any similar stories? Advice? 😢

I figure if anyone can understand this, it’s you all. I feel like I’m losing my damn mind. I have always loved communications, and I’m really good at it. But lately I’m so tired of politics and toxicity that I it’s sent me into a depression tailspin, on top of a pretty severe mid-life crisis. Two and a half weeks ago, I quit my job with nothing lined up. Not the smartest thing I’ve ever done, but I kind of feel like self-preservation was at work here. I want to do work that makes a difference. ☹️
