Valerie King has been cooking now for over thirty years, both professionally and privately, but always with passion.

This site contains some of her writing, both sensible and humorous, along with some of the recipes she has been asked for most frequently over the years.

Married with a son, and living in Cirencester, in the United Kingdom, along with the world's naughtiest - and greediest - cats, Valerie would like it known here and now that it's not a joke ... she really, really doesn't like sprouts.

This site contains some of the articles Valerie has produced for various publications on- and off-line - please do not reproduce without permission. Enjoy them!
