  3. Although I posted on my blog last Friday, here's my month's CCC post. Am anxious to see what you all made this month. It's Winter in Aspen already - snow, ice, very cold. Not my favorite season but a good time to stay indoors and cook. Happy October.

    1. Dear Zosia, we have completed 160 recipes so far - divided in 16 months plus 2 make-up months (for a total of 18 months) - for the list of the recipes that we have completed so far, please consult the up-dated list at the following link:

      http://cottage-cooking-club.blogspot.de/p/1.html

      Hugh´s book has about 200 recipes (give or take a few variations) - so, in four to five months, we will have collectedly cooked our way through the entire book.

      Thank you for your October link - looking forward to your post.
      Andrea
