Tip of the day

Never ask a child IF they need the loo... moodlum

Quote of the week

CaptainNancy's (admirably succinct) family rules: "Don't be a dingbat/duffer. Keep calm and carry on. Dream big. Shut up and get on with it."

Recipe of the week

Carmenere's cinder toffee: sweet, sticky, made-in-five-minutes toffee squares that'll spark off a few 'yums' among the 'oohs' and 'aahs' of your little fireworks-watchers.

I hated this book. I read it after Love in the Time of Cholera which I thought was great. I don't like magic realism so probably should have realised this wasn't for me. I was stupidly swayed by the reviews on the dustcover saying this book had changed people's lives. I kept on expecting to get it as I turned the last page but still didn't. Really resented wasting all that time reading it.
