Talks

Cream Horns and Vol au Vents.

Want me to give a talk on stories from my books –

I taught them to cook

Cream horns and Vol au Vents

Dame Prue Leith said ‘An accurate, and sometimes very funny, account of the trials of a young food teacher in the 70’s.’

It’s about teaching cooking to teenagers in London in 1970s.

I’m a bit of living history – involved with teaching food for 50+ years

Who’s the talk for?

Anyone interested in food who has a sense of humour.

Do you remember Angel Delight, Bird’s Custard, Spam, Bisto, Stork margarine – what’s their history?

What about 1970s fashions, 3 day week, blackouts, bedsit life..

Amazon 5* reviews say

‘A first hand slant on modern history’

‘There’s a special place in heaven for food teachers!’

‘I couldn’t put it down.’
