Picks of August 2011

Most people, excluding chefs of course, normally cook what we like to eat and all the recipes that I have posted are my babies.

Posting "Pick of the Month" is such a cruel thing for myself and it is nearly mission impossible to pick only one of out all the recipes that I have published, So I change the topic from "Pick of the Month" to "Picks of the Month". =P
