• On vacation you are excited to take a food tour because you want to eat like a local

• Your pre-planning for a trip begins with finding out where to go to eat...

• Your favorite author is in town and you can't wait to get your book signed...oh wait it's a cookbook

• People other than friends start to ask you where to find your favorite...(you name the food)

• Most of your sentences start with: "Have you tried...?"

• You purchase food oriented games to entertain

• You volunteer FOR FREE to help in a cookbook store just so you can get free cookbooks and cooking tips

• You know about a cookbook store in more than one city and make it a destination point

• You invite guests for dinner and forget to take a "people picture"... but never forget to take a food and wine shot

• You're idea of a diet is the Summer "Bear" diet...Wild Caught Chinook Salmon and Summer Berry Trifles

• The only way you will step foot in McDonalds is on a road trip...and even then you order unsalted fries so they are hot and fresh

• You carry your own tin of salt just in case...

• When on a road adventure with a buddy they tell you "this place makes the best milkshakes"...and they don’t lie

• Meal Planning is your favorite part of the day...right before grocery shopping

• Party planning is more about the food than the people

• You color coordinate your cookbooks on the shelves
