		Food For Thought - 500 All Sold!
	Post: #1   Posted: Tue Sep 24, 2013 11:43 am Steve - SJD Site Admin Joined: 16 Jul 2005 Posts: 22706 Pictures: 55   ALIX NORMAN meets a group of women who have put their heads and recipes together to produce a fund raising recipe book Sometimes you meet a group of people who you feel could, if they wanted, change the world. Luckily for politicians everywhere, my four interviewees this morning have set their sights a little lower. These four, along with two absentee fellows, are all members of the Eastern Cyprus Ladies group and, driven by charitable impulse, have given over the last nine months to the process of creating, compiling and publishing Food For Thought, a book of recipes to raise funds for the Association of Cancer Patients and Friends (PASYKAF).

If you haven't already bought one please do. They're printed in Greek and English and are full of delicious recipes. Why not buy a few for Christmas presents, they only cost €7 each. Many thanks Carol
