Book Review: Scandinavian Baking by Trine Hahnemann

They say you can’t judge a book by its cover but I beg to differ on my newest addition to my cookbook shelf.

When I was a child of 7, I was ill and off school for several months. It wasn’t anything life threatening but I was ill enough to need complete bed rest which, once I was convalescing and over the worst of my illness was terribly boring for a normally active, inquisitive child. I think this […]

Tui Flower was the Food Editor of the New Zealand Woman’s Weekly from 1965 to 1984 and this 1976 Edition of the NZ Woman’s Weekly Favourite Recipes […]
