One of the things I used to enjoy most about Saturday mornings was reading the Weekend section of The Times. It was a mixture of articles which are probably classed as 'Lifestyle' - there was gardening, food, wine, a vet answering questions and a gentleman who answered questions about etiquette. For years The Times cook was Frances Bissell.

If I had to make a criticism (and I'm forcing myself here!) it's that I'm not over-keen on the modern fashion of having parts of the book in "in-case-you've-forgotten-your-reading-glasses large print". It always smacks to me of being a cheap way of filling pages, but the device isn't over-used and it certainly doesn't spoil an excellent book and one that hasn't been off the kitchen working-surface since it came into the house.
