AUTHOR: Bryony Hill was born and educated in Sussex and, after a year at Brighton Art College, she lived in France, returning to London in 1975 where, shortly afterwards, she met her future husband, ex-professional footballer and television pundit Jimmy Hill. In 1985 they moved back to her home county where she learned to garden in earnest the vegetable plot taking priority. There remained one wish and, when she eventually convinced Jimmy that a few chickens had to join the family, their rural idyll was complete. Grow Happy, Cook Happy, Be Happy is Bryony's 7th book and she now has the time to develop her passion for photography alongside continuing to experiment with recipes and cooking what she has grown for friends and family.
