Tessa Kiros leads us once again into a world where preparing and eating food is a joy - kitchens are filled with smells of garlic and roast potatoes and children eat fresh-baked bread where they run in from school or feast on fizzy orange and chocolate brownies in dens under trees. Tessa's recipes are delightfully entangled with memories of the energy and excitement of her own childhood and hopes for her daughters. These are recipes that have been passed from friend to friend, through the generations of many families, and swapped over garden fences. This joyful and eclectic collection is put together with the grace and honesty of a daisy chain.
