	1	Douglas, O Pink Sugar London Hodder & Stoughton 1934 Twentieth Edition Hardcover Very Good No Jacket Hugely popular title by O. Douglas, the pen name of Anna Masterton Buchan (1877–1948), a Scottish novelist review - Kirsty's stepmother has finally died, leaving Kirsty with money and the freedom to do what she pleases for the first time in her life. What she chooses is a small house in Scotland, where she lives with her maiden aunt, has spirited arguments with her upper-class landlord, and eventually takes in three children who need a temporary home while their father recovers from grief at their mother's death. Kirsty is another one of Buchan's witty heroines, but she's also unabashedly sentimental; the "pink sugar" of the title comes from her telling off her landlord when he suggests that she's a weak person because she prefers the nicer side of life. I really liked Kirsty's combination of strength and sweetness, and I felt the novel did a good job of showing her growth from a somewhat self-absorbed person to someone who can recognise what's best for others, and see proffered romantic love when it comes from an unanticipated corner. Embossed boards, 312 well bound pp. Price: 14.00 AUD

Whilst you can fill a great many Wiki pages with cooks' info we will restrict ourselves to bite-sized info pieces for some well known cooks/chefs, both international & Australian. Each page will have a brief bio, some personal points and a sample recipe. All the pages will be "G" rated, yes, even Gordon Ramsay's page!

COOKS TOUR

Our personal recommendation -
We deal with lots of foodie titles and without a doubt there are those that deserve a special mention, such as this one -

Box of Beans This is Clarissa Dickson Wright's warts and all autobiography. Most of us would agree that Jennifer & Clarissa brought personality plus to the screen with their uniquely pucker food style. A glass of red & feet up with the cat on your lap would be the right way to enjoy this fly-on-the-wall view of Clarissa's triumphs & failings. It's a book and two audio CDs at just $27. Drop us an email if you'd like it.
