Leigh Sales + Gwen Blake: The Holiday Kitchen

About

Join us for a very special Bookoccino evening with Leigh Sales and Gwen Blake sharing their new book featuring mouth-watering recipes that promise to ease the mental load of cooking on holidays and at home.

Tickets include a welcome drink and an assortment of delicious canapés prepared by Moby's Whale Beach.

Packed with the hard-won wisdom of decades spent cooking for family and friends, two of Australia’s best-organised women share their most delicious recipes with tips on how to cut corners, minimise work and maximise taste and fun while on holidays. The sensible, practical and unfussy philosophy of Leigh Sales and Gwen Blake will look after your wellbeing and protect your downtime at home or on vacation, with dozens of answers to the perennial question, ‘What’s for dinner?’

From ‘double down’ recipes that create two separate meals, to ‘half-baked’ dishes that get as much prep as possible done before leaving home, to ‘fridge clear-outs’ that make the best of what you have on hand, Gwen and Leigh do all the thinking and organising for you. Coming up with ideas for economical meals and how to stretch them further is one thing you can tick off your never-ending To Do list.

Inside you’ll find an incredible array of recipes that ensure cooking for friends and family feels like a joy, not a job. Radiating common sense and warmth, Gwen and Leigh are the friends we all need – they’ve got you sorted!
