Yay for new shiny cookbooks
Eek, out of all my journals this is the one I feel guilty about letting it slide. Go figure.
Anyway, I bought The River Cottage Family Cookbook yesterday* it is excellent. It explains the reasons why you should include ingredients and what they do scientifically (for instance what flours do what and why we use yeast). the recipes look delicious too.

I'm going to try something from this later this week, though I will force myself not to use it as an excuse to make yet more macaroni cheese just because it has a recipe for that in here. :)
* It should sell for £20 but M&S are selling it for £5 so I couldn't resist.
