I get on very well with the a book called Fat + Carb + Protein Counter by the Australian Women's Weekly. ISBN 1-903-77704-6.
It is easy to read and use and i highly recommend it.

I have more cookery books than law books!

There is nothing wrong with spending time in the kitchen, even cooking the food isn't sooo bad 😉

Recipe books are great, especially a lot of the older ones, I do like traditional cooking - American cookery books make me smile - one I have, I think on soups starts by telling you the main ingredient for oxtail soup is a can of tomato soup!

Plus they spend their lives without scales, simply adding everything by cups...

Must look out some of these books.

Awww you're so kind, yes, I love cooking by feel, getting the inspiration from the base recipe then adapting it to my taste.

Carb counting books;

I've bought 2 collin gems, "GI" and "Calorie Counter" just to give me an idea of things etc incase I have takeaway or want to know some values.
They seem to do the job and at ?3.99 each not a bank breaker.
