Hi there,
I've been registered on mumsnet for a while but setting up my own business over the last couple of years means that I've neglected coming here.
I thought I'd let you know that my first book is being published on March 31st...
It's called Supper Club: recipes and notes from The Underground Restaurant (Harper Collins)

It's both a recipe book and the tale of my journey from mum who loves cooking to pioneer of the supper club movement in the UK.
I'm known on twitter as @msmarmitelover

The book is really beautiful, a thick glossy volume...

I hope some of you will check it out...

Thanks Wabbit. Yes I am a single mum of a nearly 17 year old daughter.
Actually one of the reason's I started The Underground Restaurant is because I never got invited to dinner anywhere.
As I love cooking and hosting dinner parties I decided to start charging people to come! A dinner party can cost a fortune as we all know.
It grew into a business.
As a single parent I think it would have been really hard to do it with a small child, my daughter was 14 when we started and now helps at every event. It's been great work experience for her.

Can one put pictures up on mumsnet?
