Lightbulb Cook The Book

Several of the food blogs/sites I read daily are doing a thing called "Cook The Book." Some are doing every recipe in a certain cookbook, where others are doings just selected ones out of the book.

What I was wondering, would there be any interest doing something like that here? Though it would be fun to pick one of the FN star's books to do. Everyone just pick the recipes they wanted to do and then post which one... did they like it or not... did you follow the recipe to the letter or did you do you own spin on it, etc.

The thing would be to pick which book and I kept coming back to Ina, since she seems to be a fav of almost everyone here. I was thinking about her new one "Barefoot Contessa Back to Basics: Fabulous Flavor from Simple Ingredients."

So, what do y'all think?

I don't have any of their cookbooks. I do print out and use their recipes from the FN site. Ina has some great recipes that I have used quite a bit. The Orzo and Shrimp salad is to die for!!! Only thing I change is eliminating the feta cheese and I use both limes and lemons in the dressing.
Not a fan of feta.
