Coping with Christmas : a fabulously festive Christmas companion

Books
When it was originally published, 'Coping with Christmas' was a must-have compendium to all things Christmas, with decorative ideas and crafting practices, recipes to see you through every social eventuality, and tips galore. But through a modern lens Fanny and Johnnie's words feel like a delicious parody, giving a waggish wink and a knowing nod to everyone who feels fettered by the expectation of a 'perfect' Christmas. Here, they take on an eccentric new life - full of nostalgia and humour - much needed throughout this most testing of seasons. Told with Fanny and Johnnie Cradock's trademark caustic wit and overblown attention to detail, and with a new foreword by food writer Felicity Cloake, 'Coping with Christmas' makes the perfect gift for the hostess who's ready to give up on the whole sorry season.
