I really enjoyed this book. I grew up in the era that Grace describes so vividley in the beginning chapters of this interesting book. Her description of her daily life evokes wonderful memories for me. The book definitely brought a smile to me. Grace Dent has been a well known face on our TV screens for a while and it is this familiarity which gives another depth to the book especially as I can hear Graces voice reading the words.This trip down memory lane describes how her life was shaped in terms of the food that was around as she was growing up and this is used as the basis to her story. Grace beautifully describes her life experiences with a genuinely warm humour but tinged with sadness when she writes about her fathers diagnosis and struggle with Alzheimers disease. It's both funny and poignant by turns and had me smiling frequently but also shedding a tear at times. A beautifully written, heart felt narrative. I didn't want it to end.
