You too can cook my favourite recipes! Oh-yeah! These recipes were taken from a cookbook Joyce made me for Christmas - you can download it here (Word format, 77k). You (yes you) can now send me any recipes you think I might like (if you can't see the form click here) - if I like 'em I'll stick them on the website. Cheers!
