A Year in the Southern Highlands
'Seasons of Content' tells of a year in the life of the Araluen Valley, an extraordinary part of Australia in the NSW Southern Highlands. It is a story brought vividly to life by Jackie French, whose remarkable words allow us to almost smell and taste Nature in the Valley - the foxes of autumn, the first of the asparagus, the budding and fruiting of peaches, somnolent lizards nibbling Christmas-pudding leftover on hot rocks, the slow drying of the creek, the comings and goings of wombats, the unique rhythm of days and nights.
Jackie French also provides us with a wide variety of wonderful recipes, all derived from the Valley's four seasons. In all, Jackie French offers more than eighty recipes. And there's formulas for an infallible rose love-potion, hand creams, herbal pillows and lavender-scented pest-repellent.
