It would be the yellow pages with the best take out places highlighted. Omg ... I just realized I don't get a phone book anymore. This is so whack. Well I guess the phone books dead ... That's fine.

I'd do a "My Favorite Recipes" book, with favorite tips for the kitchen that I've learned over the years.

It would be a pizza cookbook.

This will be a fair dinkum Australian cookbook and will contain my personal recipes for:

Fricasseed funnelweb.
Barbequed bandicoot.
Crocodile croquettes. 
Devilled Tasmanian devils.
And for my piece de resistance: Overland Trout.

For the uninitiated, funnel webs are a particularly large and venomous spider, originally from the Sydney area. Eating funnel webs is far more interesting than "man bites dog".

A bandicoot is a marsupial rodent that eats roots and leaves. Many an Australian lassie has said the same about her boyfriend.

Crocodiles are very bland. I know, I've tried them. Cook with the right spice they'd make a fine croquette.

I was going to opt for Devilled Tasmanians rather than the way I wrote it but, of course, Tasmania is the Ozarks of Australia and eating Tasmanians is illegal. Hence the clumsy name.

But Overland Trout? Ya just gotta try this one. That's what we call goannas. I'll put a picture below so you can see what a goanna looks like.

I'd focus on soup, pasta and curry :)
