I remember Fanny Craddock...but...

[GabbyLoggon]

There are too many get rich quick cooking
experts now. (Its a cooking nuisnace)

Being a good cook is ok,( the Smith girls recipes are said to work,) but making a fetish out of food is a rich society indulgence.

Give over cockney boy; and bullet headed chef.

But I did like Mrs Craddock years ag; yes
I liked fanny

Cradock.

Not Craddock.

I remember Pebble Mill...sortof a dinner time version of the One Show

Mowiol - one of my first ever cook books was by Marguerite Patten and it served me well around 25 years and then in the last year it has mysteriously disappeared. DH and I have searched all over - even moved the book case to see if had fallen down the back!

i do have loads and loads of other cook books and yes many of them are by celebrity chefs. But it was the old favourites like marguearite and Delia that I keep going back to.

" goodbye and may all your doughnuts look like Fanny's"

I remember that and also the Galloping Gourmet when he had hot oil in a pan which spluttered all over him and burned his face, the programme then coninued.

How about Robert Carrier and the spoof sketch which had him saying "of course I pick up all my fresh meat at Tescos"
