So, why are we here?

I have a confession, I’m a compulsive cook book hoarder. One delightful member of my family has declared my precious collection a waste of space as she alleges I do not use them all. This blog is going to the proof, as I work my way through each and every one (not every recipe, I must work out how long that would take, that would prevent me ever buying a new book and I can’t have that!).

So it would appear to be bit bizarre that the first recipe I am going to talk about is not from these shelves but sourced on the internet. Note to self – stop googling till this challenge is done!
I will be back with that soon …
