About two to three years ago a lovely mums group invited me to sit with them at waikanae pools. One of the group may remember me a kiwi living in Switzerland. One of the mums made an amazing cake and told me the name of the cooking book. Unfortunately i forgot the name and have been looking for the book for years now. Please if you know who this person is please put my mind at rest and help me find this cooking book. Big thanks to all in paraparaumu and waikanae!

Do you remember what kind of cake it was?

I think it had berrys in it. It smelt and looked amazing. The name was something like real easy etc because i remember saying thats good and the lady said no thats the name of the cooking book i know its not from jo segar or annabel langbein. I think the last name from the author starts with P.

Ruth Pretty? - who is based in that area.

Just a suggestion but the author's surname doesn't begin with P - Was the book one from Robyn Martin's Quick 'n Easy series of books? :-))

Thanks summersunnz and 245sam had a look but wasnt those ones its something like "real simple" i'm probably drawing at straws but i thought i'd give it a go on trade me. there was about 8 ladies in the group with little toddlers at waikanae pools. It was so nice that they invited to talk to them one of the girls was from overseas. The book was rectangle and they had one left in whitcolls in paraparaumu (the girl said its not ask for much anymore)i thought i'd pick it up later and then left back to switzerland and silly me forgot the name. It had yummy recipes and baking towards the back.
