Tastebook coming out in October
September 9, 2008
Filed under Cookbooks
The lull in posting is justified, believe me. First, there are still lingering technical problems screwing up the categories and category pages. Second, my TasteBook is coming out in October. TasteBook? I wanted a cookbook, right? Then, my external hard drive died on me, I lost most of the files and I had to start from scratch. Meanwhile, TasteBook came along.
So, there is going to be a Pinoy Cook TasteBook that will be available to Pinoy Cook readers all over the world because it can be ordered online. That should take care of the questions about whether my cookbook will be available to readers outside the Philippines. Please don’t ask at this point how much it will cost — it will depend on the final number of pages.
Bear with me if posting here slows down a bit. But I want this project on print to take off finally. I’m almost there. It’s almost done. And it will be available to you definitely before Christmas. Target launch date is October 20, my birthday, so I’m working overtime to meet my self-imposed deadline. On launch day, there will be a little fanfare. Some freebies but I won’t talk about the details now. Just watch out for the announcement.
In the mood for more food?

Am looking forward to the Tastebook, Connie.
Hi Miss Connie. I am an avid reader of you blogs and I am really thrilled on your announcement. Sana magkita tayo sa launch date and I definitely have to buy your Taste Book!
Ever since I found your site, I am really hooked. As in! Ask mo pa husband who really enjoyed the food I cook from your website.
You are a blessing and I do hope that GOD continue to bless you and your family. I’ll pray for the success of your Taste Book.
Thanks so much for sharing your recipes.

Ooooh, I can’t wait til yours come out. There are quite a few of your recipes that I want to add to mine. I got my Tastebook yesterday with 78 pages and it’s BEAUTIFUL! Those Tastebook people really do a good job. Too bad the max number of pages is only 100. I may just have to order your entire book instead.
By the way, they have a 20%-off sale but it ends today.
Hi! can’t wait!

You see, we are planning to migrate and what I am most apprehensive about is what we would be eating when we get there… hahahaha! Di natakot kung madiscriminate,living conditions,working atmosphere eh nuh? hehehehe!
what is the difference between a tastebook and a cookbook?
Thanks
wow, can’t wait for your Tastebook! Congratulations in advance!
yipee !!!
Gonna grab that tastebook of yours Ms. Connie. At sana makapunta ko sa launching day para makita kita ng personal.
I visit your site weekly whenever I prepare my menus. I find your recipes and cooking tips very doable, tasty and practical.
Maybe, next time, you can come up with a weekly menu schedule (linked to your recipes of course), to help especially a working wife and mom like me.
Wow! Great project Connie! Will surely look forward for it. Congratulations!
can’t wait to have my own copy! when I finally do, I’ll probably cook more! promise! Hhahaha!

Congratulations! That’s the best birthday gift anybody can have.
My wife’s birthmonth is also October - you are just a few days and years younger. I better think of something she can give herself.
Ms. Connie,
Take all the time you need. Certainly, we avid fans can bear with the lull bec. Tastebook is coming.
See you at your book launch.
