On favorite cookbooks--my favorite plain vanilla cookbook is

"Betty Crocker's Cookbook", (c) 1969 General Mills, Published by
  Golden Press, New York [no author -- heh, heh].

While this book may not raise squeals of delight from culinary
artists (real or imagined) it is a complete generic reference.  
The recipes are sound, if unexciting; they provide a good departure
point for experimentation.  I think it is a good "first cookbook".

Our copy (11th printing, 1972) is dog-eared and beat up.  It can 
generally be found on top of the pile.
