Prizes possible for people in costume or dressed with food aspirations. How many Julia Childs or Alison Holsts may we get in one day? What does a human pavlova look like? Is a dormouse in a tea pot refreshing? Banquet hats permissable. Soup can costumes may be too hot. If you resemble a long tall drink of water that may not be a costume. RSVP

Staples Launch end of February 2013


Soon to be launched - Staples - recipes, hints, poetry, (all everybody needs)

                by Brightspark Books Tamaki Maukaurau, Auckland, New Zealand

 
                                                                                ISBN 978-0-473-23253-5


Kia Ora, this intriguing book, Staples was suggested after Raewyn Alexander gorgeously described the dinners and lunches she prepared. These sumptuous status updates on facebook inspired the creation of this book, which includes tried and true recipes, household and gardening hints, along with poetry from this versatile writer.

Please stay with us here at Brightspark Books while we prepare the book for printing and then announce the launch, which will be held at The Happy Tea House in Grey Lynn, Auckland, Aotearoa, New Zealand. We plan to have this event near the end of February 2013.

The editing has been completed, and now the book design is well under way.
