So, with the remaining money on my Barnes and Noble gift card, I was thinking about buying myself a cookbook. What do you think:
The Joy of Cooking or The Betty Crocker Cookbook?

EDIT: Based on A) the votes here and B)the fact that my father will be bringing a (probably very old) copy of the Betty Crocker Cookbook when the parents come to visit, I have ordered a copy of The Joy of Cooking from Barnes and Noble online, and it is being shipped to me.

Yeah, I have a couple of the old-school Betty Crocker ones, and they're weeeiird after, like, 40 years. They've got captions like, "This is the way men like their onions," and honestly? They're fun to read, but the one I have, I don't think I'd make anything in it. My friend got me a page-a-day Joy of Cooking calendar this past Christmas, and that's true, it is better for instruction. Both're fun, though. :-D
