_______________
This cookbook is about a year in the kitchen.
A year of grief and hope and change; of fancy fish pie, cardamom-cinnamon chicken rice, chimichurri courgettes, quadruple carb soup, blackberry miso birthday cake, and sticky toffee Guinness brownie pudding.
A year of loss, and every kind of romance, and fried jam sandwiches.
A year of seedlings and pancakes. A year of falling in love. A year of recipes.
A year, in other words, of minor miracles.
The Year of Miracles by bestselling author Ella Risbridger is more than just a cookbook; like her award-winning Midnight Chicken, every page is a transporting blend of recipes and life story. This is about what happens when you've lived through the worst thing you could have imagined – and how you can still cook, and eat, and love.

The Year of Miracles
By Ella Risbridger
Ella Risbridger's sequel (sort of) to the bestselling cookbook Midnight Chicken; a positive book about how we live through grief, and live better - but also ultra-tasty, hack-driven cookery that shows what comfort food looks like through the year.
