However, as food bloggers, it�s pretty much impossible for us to look at a recipe from a cookbook or another website or blog and just make it as-is. The creative juices are always flowing, and it�s just somehow beyond us to leave well-enough alone.
Hypocrites. But if we screw up someone else�s recipe, we keep it to ourselves. And if we change it and make a new, awesome recipe, we share it with all of our readers, as well as tell them about our awesome blogger friend who has another awesome recipe that inspired this awesome recipe, and you really need to make both
