- I only have a small family, so it doesn't make sense for me to cook a different recipe every day. I will cook at least 3 new recipes a week from the book.
- I may substitute dried herbs and spices when the recipe calls for it, but only if the spices come in large quantities that I can't possibly use or when the small fresh package is too expensive. A good example is cilantro. It comes in a giant bunch and I can't possibly use it all.
- I may take vacations/sick time off.
- I'm ok with subistituting 1% for whole milk, that sort of thing, as long as it makes the dish less calories.
- I won't publish the directions because that would be stealing someone else's materials. Buy the book yourself if you want the recipe.
- On my first week, I'll probably only do one recipe. I have to get prepared for this.
- Since the book is broken up in different things like appetizers, soups, etc, I will do it in the order I choose. I don't want to do 3 dishes of fish straight in one week, so I'll try to break it up a little. I'll come up with some sort of spreadsheet to keep track of it all.
Any other rules I should add?

I think at the end you need to choose your favorite recipes and have a dinner party!
Do you deliver? ;) Just kidding!! This is SUCH a great idea! Clever title, too.
Word to the wise: always use fresh cilantro. The dried *never* tastes like cilantro.
If they sold Cilantro in reasonable quantities, I wouldn't hesitate. I just hate throwing things like this out.
