If someone in New Mexico has the largest cookbook collection at 2970, I'll eat my hat. My wife got rid of four hundred cookbooks last year, and another four hundred this year, so I know what a bunch of cookbooks looks like. My wife has well over three thousand right now, and had close to four thousand two years ago. I can see over six hundred in three bookcases as I type this, and there are twenty-eight bookcases full in the basement.
I don't know if I am bragging or complaining.
