The River Cottage Family Cookbook by Hugh Fearnley-Wittingstall and Fizz Carr
Hugh - thank you for cutting your hair, now I can love you unconditionally. This book isn't new (released in 2008), but I have been coveting it this past year and think the time has come.

The Insiders’ Guide to New Zealand
If you haven't yet come across NZ Life & Leisure, try and track down a copy (purchase online and in some, larger newsagents); I think it's the most unique and inspiring lifestyle magazine out there. Have ordered three copies of this for Christmas presents and am hoping they'll arrive in time.

Free Range in the City, by Annabel Langbein
Having loved this book's country cousin 'The Free Range Cook', I can't wait to read NZ chef Annabel Langbein's latest collection. Her recipes always ALWAYS work beautifully and she writes with generosity and common sense.

Artisan bread in 5 minutes a day by Jeff Hertzberg and Zoe Francois
Baking a successful loaf of bread is one of the most satisfying things you can do in the kitchen. A friend gave me the no-knead bread recipe from this book and it is one of the best recipes I've ever made.

Menus for Chez Panisse by Particia Curtan
Chef and letterpress artist Patricia Curtan worked with Alice Waters in the early years of Chez Panisse. She would hand print menus every night and the originals are now collectors items. Here Patricia has collected her favourites. I can't wait to get my hands on this book and read the menus that made this restaurant one of the world’s best.

Feasting by Karen Martini
I love a solution and Karen Martini's book Feasting provides them in spades.. I first discovered this book via a friend, she cooked the slow roast lamb with couscous menu for us one night and had the whole table fighting over leftovers. Thank you Ali!
