I do actually have an old French cookbook with a yellow cover — though it’s in French and probably wouldn’t make a fair exchange. I’m rather fond of my aul kitchen bits anyway 😆

I’ll keep an eye on your page though — there are some good finds there, and if something catches my eye I’ll be in touch.

All the best!
