Supercute stocking stuffer

magpie1

Crazy Magpie is a British designer who recently did a mini cookbook with her mom, and it's so incredibly cute! It came in a lovely printed wrapper, and the booklet itself is really nicely designed. It has 26 cake and biscuit recipes, all very British - like rock buns, malteser cake, classic shortbread and bakewell tart. I love the simple design of the whole thing - the photos are beautiful and clear, the instructions are easy to follow, and it's just a really well-thought out little thing. Perfect to give a friend for christmas!

You can't! :) It must be ordered directly from her, as far as I know. But I'm sure she'll ship here, and fast, too!

Hi Anne,
I'm Monia from Italy.
I love your Blog very much and I'm happy to have found hear a lot of Scandinavian recipes.
I'm always looking for new original recipes for my Blog, so I ask you if I can translate some of your recipes to post on my Italian/English Blog.
If you'll try something interesting on my Blog, you are allow to take some recipes for your one too.
Let me know.
Thanks, Monia.

Hi Monia!

I'd prefer if you link to them unless you actually make them :) And, I don't let anyone use my photos. :)

E-mail me if you want to talk more about this!
