From the TBR pile: The Art of Baking Blind

   

    Here is a novel which sounds like a must for all Great British Bake Off fans, The Art of Baking Blind by Sarah Vaughan:

    "Take five strangers with nothing in common except a passion for baking.

    Add a hotly-contested competition and beat to stiff peaks.

    Heat to just the right degree of tension.

    Ice with the bittersweet tale of the iconic woman who inspired them all.

    Enjoy in snatched bites, or devour at one sitting.

    Relish the exquisite combination of dark and light flavours, the delicious moments and mouth-watering twists."

    The search is on to find the 'New Mrs. Eaden', someone to 'don the apron' of the famous cookery writer, author of the 1966 book The Art of Baking. As five amateur bakers compete, "they will learn - as Mrs. Eaden did - that, while perfection is possible in the kitchen, it's very much harder in life".

enjoying it,at first I thought I would not, but, even

though it's not what I would have bought to read, it grows

a little on you, plus who could resist reading about food!
