Mrs Frugal Posted November 24, 2005 Share Posted November 24, 2005 There are several, Laura. I think the one mentioned was The River Cottage Family Cookbook. You can get it from Amazon along with the rest of the series... The River Cottage Cookbook The River Cottage Year The River Cottage Meat Book or order them through the River Cottage shop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 24, 2005 Share Posted November 24, 2005 My son has just bought it for my daughter in law, and she loves it. It has lots of recipes that children can join in with. Forward planning on his behalf as their first child won't be arriving for a few weeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted November 24, 2005 Share Posted November 24, 2005 (edited) Clare* recommended the family one to me, said it is really good. Edited November 24, 2005 by Guest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clare* Posted November 24, 2005 Share Posted November 24, 2005 Yep love it. Try WH Smiths though first. I got mine half price so only £10.00. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lesley Posted November 24, 2005 Share Posted November 24, 2005 I bought three copies, two as presents - it's a really nice book. We've got all the others as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted November 24, 2005 Share Posted November 24, 2005 I might have to get that at the weekend Clare*. On the topic of money saving, I looked at the site re savings (loads of good bargains), but couldn't see the bit about savings at Tesco - where is it? ps have got my good mum badge on today Done 8 hours at work, cleaned the whole house, made pumpkin seeds rolls and homemade soup - feel very virtuous! Just listening to Robbie's new CD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clare* Posted November 24, 2005 Share Posted November 24, 2005 Wow Clare you have been busy On the money saving site,go into the chat forum,click the blue button down the left hand side. Go to grab it while you can. Tesco has a couple of threads going. Tesco misprice and discussion. The organic chickens seem to be on the list today,but have not checked out Banbury Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted November 24, 2005 Share Posted November 24, 2005 Thanks Clare* if I'd known, I would have packed Rosie into the car and gone up there I'll keep my eye on it now. Are you tucked up in your bed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clare* Posted November 25, 2005 Share Posted November 25, 2005 Sorry battery went flat before I could answer last night. Yes Tucked up in bed,but looking at the internet for a new dishwasher I went to put a full load of last night but not water is being fed into the dishwasher Its had a good run of 12 years. I think its all this bread I'm making, bits bunging up the pipes probably.I'm not very good a clearing everything off before it goes in the dishwasher I cannot live without it I am afraid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted November 25, 2005 Share Posted November 25, 2005 Phil's like that; he makes me laugh - there's only him living there, but he still has a full-size dishwasher! When he comes round to mine, I cook and he washes, which means that he puts all my dishes in plastic bags and takes them up to his house to put in the washer I don't care, so long as they are clean I hope that you find one soon. I have found Tesco quite competitive for white goods, but I'm sure that you will hunt down a real bargain! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clare* Posted November 25, 2005 Share Posted November 25, 2005 I'm on strike in the kitchen till I get a new one. Maybe I should take a leaf out of Phil's book,take them round to my mums. When I first got a dishwasher, I said that I will never use it. Now I don't do any washing up at all. In everthing goes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted November 25, 2005 Share Posted November 25, 2005 I've never had one, but could see that it would be useful if I could afford it. Although I am concerned about the masses of water that they seem to use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freerange Posted November 26, 2005 Share Posted November 26, 2005 We were lucky enough to be given one by some friends who's kitchen was too small for it. Its amazing how quick they grow on you! I try to salve my concience by buying eco friendly dishwasher liquid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs Frugal Posted November 26, 2005 Share Posted November 26, 2005 We haven't got room for one! My kitchen is so tiny that the fridge and freezer have to live in the utility!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
