The Kitchen Front: A Novel | Jennifer Ryan

pick

I have been saving this one (part of my #RecipeSwap package from @BookNAround last year) for my virtual foodie book club. Sweet WWII historical fiction about 4 very different British women in a wartime cooking contest with the first prize of being a radio host on The Kitchen Front radio show, helping housewives & home cooks creat good meals from their rations & learn how to stretch them. A bit predictable , but an endearing story of friendship.

BookNAround Glad you enjoyed it. I still have my copy on my tbr stack. 😂 8mo

Apple: (Skin to the Core) | Eric Gansworth

Danielle, your parcel arrived! I love the recipes - I‘ve always wondered exactly what a “pot roast” is, now I can cook one myself😀 and the noodle salad sounds yum😋 The book is beautiful and I‘m delighted with all the lovely extras you included. Thank you so much for all of it and for being such a generous swap partner.😘

Lindy I listened to Gansworth read his memoir and then went to a website to see his artwork; it‘s better to have it in hard copy, I think, even though I really liked the audiobook. Hope you enjoy the book. 2y

Ddzmini There is another package on the way I‘m so happy you received the first one … enjoy the recipes I‘ll let you know when I get a chance to make your biscuits, soup, and cake 2y

CarolynM @Lindy There are a lot of illustrations. I don‘t think I‘d get their significance if I had to look them up after reading. The book looks fascinating, I‘m looking forward to getting in to it. 2y

CarolynM @Ddzmini I‘ll let you know when the other one arrives 🙂 2y

Ddzmini Thank you 😊 I‘m still watching it on this side as well 2y

Centique Pot roast was my go to recipe when I was a uni student and had an electric frypan in my flat. I never seem to do it as well these days on the gas hob. Let me know if you make it and the recipe works well! ☺️ 2y

I‘m finally home and got to open my wonderful #recipeswap from @DebinHawaii . It‘s fantastic! I love that you got yourself copies of the books too 😂 I am looking forward to using the Hawaiian salt and the bookmark is adorable. Your recipes look amazing! I will definitely try your mom‘s cookies first. (Wondering if I‘ll have to share with family. Hmmm.)

@BennettBookworm Thanks for organizing!

LeahBergen Ooo, nice! 2y

DebinHawaii Oh yay! I‘m glad you got to open it & that you like it! OK, one question, was there a printed recipe foe Sopa Seca (Dry Soup) from my blog in the package? After I taped the box shut I found it & wasn‘t sure if I printed two or didn‘t send. I‘ll email or send you a copy if it didn‘t make it in the box. 🫣 2y

BookNAround @DebinHawaii I do have the Sopa Seca recipe. Maybe you intended to send it to someone else too? 2y

I‘d forgotten what books I‘d put on the sign up form and luckily had resisted all urges to buy this - as I am a complete sucker for illustrated covers with houses on them.

Thanks so much Gemma, these recipes look 🤤 especially the chocolate croissant pudding - will have to see if I can borrow a slow cooker… and Australia is just heading into winter so perfect timing for soup and mushroom wellingtons!

MerlinTheSlightlyAwkward Love the framed art piece in the background! 2y

Magpiegem Ah sorry I missed this before!! Yay I‘m glad both bits are there now. Sorry they were delayed. I hope you really enjoy them and that you got a cute book mark in yours like I did! Amazing to think we are on opposite sides of the world but our books to each other came from the same indie book shop! Xx 2y

thegirlwiththelibrarybag @Magpiegem, yes it‘s all arrived safely. No worries, they got here that‘s the main thing. I did get a bookmark but it wasn‘t as cute 😂 2y

thegirlwiththelibrarybag @MerlinTheSlightlyAwkward, I walked past it at a market and thought, your coming home with me ✨ her website is closed atm but the artists IG is @ by.peachyrose, if you wanted to see more. 2y
