Books are a huge part of our life. You will find piles everywhere and shelves filled to the brim in this house! My husband can't understand my need to buy more and more and more!! But luckily, my love of books has been passed on to my children who love to read.
Cook books are also piled high, but as I admit to everyone, I am no cook. I do love to sit and flick through them though, and that's what this pile is for. Today I am looking to shake up the meals I'm dishing up week & in week out. It's just all getting a little boring at our dinner table at the moment.
These are a few of my favourites right now;
Notes from my Kitchen Table by Gwyneth Paltrow. I also love reading the recipes (as well as other bits and pieces) on her website Goop. Healthy and delicious, they are worth having a look at.
FOOD by Mary McCartney. Of course, the photographs in this are beautiful and 90% of the reason I bought it! Luckily it also has some really yummy vegetarian meals in it.
Recipes and stories from a hungry cook by Marion Grasby. It's time I stretched my asian cooking skills a little, and I find the recipes in the book are 'doable'.
The Urban Cook by Mark Jensen. This one requires a little reading, but if you're interested in sustainable food, this is really good.
So I'm going to enjoy a little time in the sun today reading and dreaming. Happy Saturday!
