The Cookbook Holder

This is an extra bonus post, per request from my friend and fellow blogger, who can be found at 2020cookingadventures.  He was asking me about my book holder that you see in a lot of my blogs.  I use it ALL the time.  It helps protect your cookbooks and recipes from all the kitchen splatter.  All of us who cook know kitchen splatter happens all the time, regardless of how careful you are when cooking.  It also helps you read your recipes better by propping them up and holding them, leaving your hands free to cook and make your magic happen.  It is adjustable and holds most sizes of books.   It is a simple book holder that sits on a wooden base with slots that hold that removable back piece; the piece that holds the books in place.  The front is a larger plastic shield that is attached by two screws that can be removed to clean the front shield.  The whole book holder can come apart, which makes cleaning very easy.  A friend of mine gave it to me, and I have no idea where she got it, but the first places I would start looking would be a book store or a store that sells kitchen gadgets and kitchen “toys”.  If they don’t carry them, they might be able to refer you to someone who does.  I have had it for quite a few years, and I absolutely love it.  I highly recommend it for anyone who works in the kitchen.  It could also be helpful to all those who do crafts and are following instructions.  It frees up your hands, allowing you to use them on your projects.
