What we bought, spent and ate this week

Hello Dear Reader,

I made a couple of new recipes this week, both are absolute keepers and I will share them both with you soon. I am always on the look out for new recipes to try, but I have some rules. They mustn't take too long to come together, they mustn't have too many ingredients and also not require a lot of fuss and bother. So simple ingredients and a simple method is what I look for when browsing new recipes.  It also helps if I already have most of the ingredients at home already or I have bought them recently for a reduced price.

I have so many recipe books that I refer to occasionally but I really must use them more. I find I tend to hit google quite a bit or use other blogs for inspiration. When I buy a new recipe book, I read it cover to cover, often making notes or book marking an interesting recipe and then it goes on the book shelf, where it may sit for some time. So I have made a promise to myself to work through a book at a time and start making the most of the gems of recipe books I have collected over the years.
