Excellent glasses! I hope in these tired short days you have a moment to reflect how much you have done this year. I know there's been so real crappiness but there's also been your BRILLIANT book which has brought pleasure and helped so many people. We use it even more than when it first arrived, which is such a contrast with most cookbooks x

Sending you filled-to-the-brim saucepans of love. December should be DO NOTHING month. Instead, it’s madly busy every year (especially if you work in food, as I do now, at Riverford!). Wish humans would normalise hibernation. Love these pics and ideas. Non shouty voices - so true! And watching something really heartwarming in the evening… love old movies and romances and films filled with women and community… love ya, and hope to get together in 2025 xx

Melissa, I just wanted to say how much you’ve changed my “cooking life”! I own 4 of your books and when I bought Real Healthy to add to the collection, at that point I moved all other cookbooks by other authors off my shelf. There is NO POINT in having them there, because I only use yours now! You have taught me so much and I’m grateful to you for that. Your recipes are always healthy, without the faff and I love your no nonsense tips on food waste. Have a great rest this Christmas with your family. Much love to you 💓
