Weekend Cooking: TTT Books that made me hungry....again

I have a confession to make. This week I have been super crazy busy at work which has meant working late every night and being completely brain dead at the end of each day.  I am also likely to be working all weekend which means that I don't have a terrible lot of inspiration for this week's post.

However, earlier this week I did write a post that could count as a Weekend Cooking post, so I am going to share that with you instead.

Most weeks I participate in an event called Top Ten Tuesday which is where there is a theme and then lots of people tell us all about ten books or bookish things that fit the theme.This week, the theme was Books That Made Me Hungry. There were lots of different takes on the topic. Lots of people chose books with food on the cover, or just books that made you hungry when you read them.

I chose a book that reminded me of childhood, books that made me hungry as well as a book that I had cooked something from after reading it. Most of the books on my list were chosen by searching the words hungry and delicious on the blog and I had so many books I could choose from. I didn't even need to look at the titles or covers to find books. In fact, I had so many I could have done the theme three times over!

Here's my post and a couple of the books that I had on my list

Top Ten Tuesday: Books that Made Me Hungry

And you can find all the other posts that people contributed here.

Books that I saw on lots of people's lists that were on my list included With the Fire on High, the Hannah Swenson series of mysteries which are set in a cookie shop, and Sarah Addison Allen's books.
