I've been working in the British Library today. There's a very nice
temporary (small) exhibition of cookery/food books - Hannah Glasse etc
- there. . I found it really wonderful, as I think most of the people
on this ng would. Not worth a trip, but if yo'u're near King's Cross,
worth half an hour.

It was chosen (so they say) by Delia Smith, but don't let that put you
off.

Oh, Delia's quite sensible. Simplifys things so the ignorant (not the
stupid) can learn, but for plain home cooking and the odd bit of fancy
stuff, she's fine. I'd rather work with her than Jamie Oliver (another
very fine cook, but the programs and his manner irritate).
