4☆ A Delightfully Heart Warming Cookbook

Wow what a delightful cookbook.
Not only does it contain some delicious recipes it has a storytelling flavour to it as Risbridger takes the reader on a journey of her personal connections to the recipes. Which was a joy to Read!

All the recipes are measured in Grams,  ml, and spoon measures and uses UK ingredients. So a conversion maybe needed for those outside the UK.
The recipes are very well written and has much detail.
However my only gripe is there is no pictures to see what the food looks like, which is a bit of a bug bear for me. Especially if you have never heard of the recipes before of are new to the ingredients it helps to have a visual aid.

The chapters are broken up into
* In the Kitchen... gives an insight into store cupboard ingredients, freezer, kitchen utensils
* Breakfast... recipes
* Soups and Bread... recipes
* Picnics and Pack Ups... recipes
* Store cupboard Suppers & Midnight Feasts... recipes
* Weekend Cooking....recipes
* Sweet Things....recipes
* Taking Stock

So as you can see a variety of chapters.
Here are a few Examples of what you can expect inside.....
* Drop scones, * Bagels
* AGA Mama’s Milk Bread,
* Tipsy Amaretto Squash Soup,
* Danny the Champion of the Pie,
* Wildly Easy Hummus, * Danish Crackers,
* Emergency Risotto, * Needs Using Up Minestrone, * Ciao Bella Tomato Sauce (for Pizza & Pasta), * Pea Parmesan Pasta, * Marmite Spaghetti, * Uplifting Chilli & Lemon Spaghetti, * Goat’s Cheese Puff with Salsa,
