@blue_dolphin The cookie book caught my eye, until I remembered that our yearly mass Christmas cookie baking has come to an end.

 

I hear you - I bought the hard copy in anticipation of holiday baking that didn't happen.  Fingers crossed that I get some use out of it later this year!

Thanks.  I was planning to hold out for the hardcopy of Falastin.  I've paged through it at work.  It's a pretty book.  But for $3.99 I sprung for the Kindle edition.

A new month (already!) and a new crop of ecookbooks on sale. They're worth taking a look at...just 2 pages so it will go quickly. 

Unfortunately, a lot of them have been previously posted in the past. 
And others offer a small amount of recipes for the sale price and I didn't think they were worth posting. 

Your opinion may differ.

I'll keep an eye out for more bargains...

Most peculiar. I don’t have prime with amazon.com so that will not explain it. But it is still showing at $1.58. Maybe you’ve said something to upset Jeff?

I just bought The Great British Baking Show - Love to Bake well, um,  because I'm an unabashed fan of the show.

Me too!  The competitors are such lovely people.
