There have been lots of lovely new books in my library this month!
Mexican Food Made Simple - Thomasina Miers
I've been watching the TV series of this on channel 5 and mainly got the book out to read the churros con chocolate recipe in more detail, but it's actually a really nice book about Mexico and all the yummy food you can eat there. Not many of the recipes are vegan, but I enjoyed reading it anyway.
Make, Mend, Bake, Save and Shine - Barbara Warmsley
This book has lots of tips and tricks to live a greener life and save money, most of the tips are common sense or things I've heard elsewhere, but it's a nice, positive read.
Cute and Easy Crochet - Nikki Trench
I loved Super Cute Crochet by the same author, and this book is great too, lots of easy crochet projects and pretty pictures to inspire! There's a flowery granny square blanket I'd particularly like to try making.
When God Was a Rabbit - Sarah Winman
I haven't finished reading this yet, but I can already tell I'm going to love it, it's about a brother and sister as they grow up. They have a rabbit called God. I will be back to write a proper review when I've finished reading.
You should try making crochet tutorials now that you're a pro :)

They look like good books...
ReplyDeleteWe spent over 2 hours in our local book shop last week - it was wonderful. We don't buy - just look & make notes!
