i have looked it it quickly in shop. has lots of nice pics but not much substance. mind you i thought that about express and have come around to several recipes in that - mini meatloves are super and a lot of the flavour mixes are new for her.

I have bought it (v cheap from Book people) because many of the recipes look like nice winter recipes rtather than purely xmas IYSWIM, so hopefully will be useful rather than just decorative. Also some nice foody gift ideas which I want to make.
