Egluntyne Posted September 29, 2008 Author Share Posted September 29, 2008 There were some recipes in the You Magazine yesterday **here** . I am unashamedly a Daily and Sunday Mail reader. I like the look of the Girdlebuster Pie and the Pumpkin and Goats Cheese Lasagne. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted September 29, 2008 Share Posted September 29, 2008 I am unashamedly a Daily and Sunday Mail reader. Good for you - so am I Nigella actually really annoyed me in her last series - all that coquetishness was too much. I decided not to see the Christmas show,but it does look good, & she is so Christmassy,isn't she? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I decided not to see the Christmas show,but it does look good, & she is so Christmassy,isn't she? She is a bit pouty and in love with herself I agree, but I love her recipes and do find they work well. I made some of her Cranberry Curd at the w/e.....and it is simply divine, and so easy.

bellekatz Posted September 29, 2008 Share Posted September 29, 2008 OOOps I clicked it too as I really like the recipes in the last book ( the express one?) Could do without the series though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jomaxsmith Posted September 29, 2008 Share Posted September 29, 2008 It's the sort of thing SIL always buys me for Christmas but I think I'll have to buy it. I can't actually bear to watch her on tv (her life and house are way too pretentious!) but I've got Domestic Goddess and find it the most referred to of all my many, many cookbooks. I love the way she doesn't do anything by hand if the mixer or blender can be used! Jo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KimmyCustard Posted September 29, 2008 Share Posted September 29, 2008 She used to live on the Goldhawk Road in Shepherds Bush, before she married Charles Saatchi, not a pleasant street, must have been alot of editing done for the outdoor scenes!

Christian Posted October 1, 2008 Share Posted October 1, 2008 I must confess..........it was me that told Christian about this book a couple of months ago Not only did you tell me Pam, you emailed me a link! There is no hope once I have a direct link! I then told Kate and she was debating whether to get it or not. I am in Hamburg, but the book should be at home waiting for me when I get back tomorrow. That and another book on preserving your home grown produce - Sorry Paola! Will post what I think tomorrow. I liked the idea that it contained 'food for presents' as well as recipes. I am a sucker for foodie Christmas pressies! It worked out cheaper for the 2 with http://www.play.com free delivery too! I must stop reading these threads *off to check out Sarah Raven's book* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs Webmuppet Posted October 1, 2008 Share Posted October 1, 2008 I've put the book on my Amazon wish list pending Christians review, I have to put in an order with Amazon before Christmas (who needs to trudge round the shops when you can mail order). The thought of foodie Christmas pressies sounds good........after all what do you give the people who have everything! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickencam Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 Nigella £14.99 on play.com. Free delivery is the big plus side of Play It is always worth checking out The Book People for cookery books too When I looked on play just now I noticed that they had Chinese Food made easy for £9.49 it is only £4.99 at book people you have to pay £3.50 postage but still cheaper and postage is free over £25 and you get points every time you buy which you can redeem against books.

Christian Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 Very impressed with the book so far. Lots of great ideas for Christmas and nice pressie ideas too. 20+ pages of gift ideas plus many other recipes also giftboxable! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
