Larousse Gastronomique. It's a classic - mostly it's a food encyclopedia, but it has some great recipes in it. You're better off learning cooking methods anyway - then you can just wing it.
well, i have a lot of cookbooks too, but the ones i get offline, never help or come out right. so usually i have fun experimenting. no one has told me yet that they didn't like my food!! for example. i wanted chicken and noodles, but the kids didn't; they wanted a caserole. specifically tuna caserole. so i created a chicken noodle caserole which everyone loved.
one bag of egg noodles (cook them fully, and seperately) 1/2 cup of butter 1/2 cup of milk three sliced or diced up chicken breasts (cook them first, i microwaved them) 1 can cream of chicken 2-3 chicken boullion cubes (equally spaced) and some pepper (just a pinch) mix it all up into a casserole dish, and cover the top with mozzarella and colby jack cheese. (just enough to cover the top) put it into the oven on 350 and leave it there until the cheese starts to bubble and the edges of it are just hinting at brown. (in oven the caserole dish is uncovered) it should be done and ready to eat then ! really picky children loved it, and there was absolutely none left. try it!!
The Internet has a veritable smorgasbord of sites devoted to recipes. Allrecipes.com and epicurious.com are two of the more popular ones. I happen to use Allrecipes.com and haven't really looked at any others. (I tend to find something I like and stick with it.)
I like allrecipes.com as well. A lot of the comments really improve the dishes. I also like the resize function for adjusting the amount of servings.

I go to Martha Stewart's site (marthastewart.com); there is a "recipe finder" - you can search by ingredient or by category (i.e. breakfast, fish, Thanksgiving).
Williams Sonoma also has some good recipes.
