Thanks, everyone. Rebekah Send a noteboard - 12/01/2012 08:26:19 PM
Have been away for a few days so it's nice to come back to a good list of replies.

However, I realised a flaw in my plan: most of you are Americans and thus recommended American books which use American measurements and products. :P I rather hope that my non-pregnant brain would have thought of this before asking the question, but you never know.

That said, I'll look into the Betty Crocker and see how usable it is for a ... sort-of Brit.

Thanks again!

The measurements aren't so much of a problem, it turns out. We use cups &c in NZ. Rebekah - 12/01/2012 10:07:49 PM 897 Views
