Two Passions

A friend of mine gave me this book as a Christmas gift. It combines
two of my passions - photography and food. Featuring recipes and
photography from the Avoca chain of Irish restaurants and homewares
stores, it's a feast for the mind and the tastebuds. I have yet to
try some of the recipes but I've earmarked some that I was to do
in the near future.

New cookbooks are one of the best gifts one can receive!

One of my favourite cookbooks, Mairéad. Their salads are creative and delicious!

Subtle and well chosen placement of the background "props". The Olympus really picked out the detail of the texture of the spine too.
I've always associated "Avoca" with an insular little community on Sydney's northern beaches and assumed that the name was derived from Latin; but apparently it's pure Irish! Y'learn somethin' new every day...

A fine still life. Love the arrangement, light and textures.

I immediately thought of the 'Ballykissangel' village!
