Here's the Before and After pictures of my bookcase tidying.
I have decided to get rid of all my Rachel Allen books, looking through them I realised that it was the lifestyle more than the recipes that were holding my attention.
Not what a good recipe book should do. Also most of her recipes I have in various forms in other books anyway, which I guess is true of a lot of recipe books when you think about it.
You can tell a book that you use regularly by corners folded down, tatty covers or in the case of this one .... lots of mini 'post-its' sticking out.
A nice selection of books for the car boot box.
Meanwhile outside ..... Arthur is in a hole of his own making ..... he was out of view for such a long time that I went over to see if he was okay. This is a HUGE job to be doing single-handedly.
And finally ....
I couldn't go today without saying a MASSIVE
HAPPY BIRTHDAY to my lovely Mum, who is (shh ... don't tell anyone)
75 today.
We are about to start a whole weekend of birthday celebrations together. See you soon Mum and Graham.
