Easter Cakes

Pick yourself up. Dust yourself off. And start all over again….
I should be:
- clearing the washing basket daily
- hoovering with aplomb
- joyously flicking my micro fleece duster around the lounge
- not nurturing sneaky cobwebs
- replenishing the pot pourri at regular intervals
- successful in my removal of weetabix from every kitchen surface
- hoovering the light shades
- wiping the skirting boards
My 5 Favourite Recipe Books
Joining in with Kate Takes 5 Listography I am sharing with you my current 5 favourite recipe books (in no particular order):
1. Recipes from My Mother for My Daughter – Lisa Faulkner
A very recent publication and fast becoming a favourite of mine. Scrummy, accessible recipes with the personal touch of the gorgeous Ms Faulkner.
2. Home Cooking Made Easy – Lorraine Pascale
Just like her first book, all the recipes in here are delicious, and indeed, fairly easy.
3. Hummingbird Bakery: Cake Days
Yum. Yum. YUM.
4. Feast – Nigella Lawson
I have all her books, this was my first and remains my favourite.
5. At Elizabeth David’s Table
I don’t cook a lot from it, but love reading it and soaking up everything about this amazing woman.
