Tip of the day
Don't get in a panic over Christmas. Keep a box and put a little in it every week - small gifts, wine, nibbles, napkins etc. This way, you'll be more relaxed and less skint in December! keriku
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.

Perfect read for a summer holiday. Easy to put down and pick up again.
The story happens over a few days and is fairly fast paced. Evie is going on 'holiday' with her employers - she is a receptionist for a couple of plastic surgeons. There is a conference in the South of France, and she is going along too to help.
The book is full of witty observations, classic comments and she says things you wish you could have said at some time yourself!!!
