That I have a severe addiction to beautiful cookbooks is widely known but no matter how many gorgeous examples are sent to me by kind publishers for review some always slip through the net so Christmas gave me the chance to buy the following from that excellent indie bookstore UBS Canterbury while visiting there the week before our departure to the US. Now we are home again I have time to have a relaxing read of them and all three have proven enchanting. Next week I start cooking from them!
