St Michaels Freezer Book

I was reading all the threads the other day about freezing food - I know what you can and can't freeze, but somehow feel unsure still. The threads are really good, but everyone was saying how good this book is....so guess what I found in the charity shop two doors down from where I work.....yup - St Michaels Freezer Book, and it only cost me a pound!!!! :T

I'm really pleased, there are some great recipes in it!

    I completely agree, I 'borrowed' my sisters copy, batch cooked half a dozen of the fishermen's pie at the weekend - its lovely and really easy.

    lol - I was flicking through my copy yesterday and I did wonder if there is anyone that doesn't own this book?! Everyone I know has a copy, I bought mine from a charity shop a few years back.

    I inherited my copy from my great aunty Ivy who passed away in 1991. She was such a wise woman and my favourite aunty. :D

    Mine fell to bits after long and faithful service, so I am on the look out for another!
    I still have my treasured 1982 M&S '1,000 recipe cookbook'.
    I can cook and sew, make flowers grow.
