Winter Celebration Puds

Well winter has really tucked in for us at last and with a few family and friends birthdays it back to making puds.  I love raspberries and freeze them to use for the winter months.  Katie Stewart's wonderful Hot Raspberry Crumble ( leave out the water) is prefect celebration food or how about from a 1982 Saisbury's cookbook by Josceline Dimbleby Festive Food and Party Pieces, the Winter Raspberries Recipe. Its been developed with frozen fruit in mind -  light, delicious and perfect after a casserole.  Just check out the photos in this book - they are so - well you tell me.  My sister in Jersey who loves to cook tells me her favourite recipe for entertaining is also in this book - its the Spiced Crispy Pigeon Pie.  This is progress we have a book with two people having a favourite recipe in it.

And last but not least - BBC  Food  web site (okay not a Book, but we all use it) from Master Chef recipes the Chocolate and orange bread and butter pudding .  My visitors sat there in stunned silence after the first mouthful - it really is magic.  Created by a Rugby player so you will find that half the recipe will serve 5 - 6.

I have recently been given a bread maker and am hooked on it - any ideas for good Bread recipes/books welcome.
