A lot of recipe books

After a long day at work, it was late, and I still had no photo.  Then I realised, I hadn't blipped the end result of this.  Partly because, until Monday, the floor around there was piled with stuff waiting to go to the charity shop.  Even now, we have already started a fresh collection.

The 2 shelves of recipe books are a combination of mine and W's - neither of us are good at paring down!  Many of mine have only ever been used for one or 2 recipes, and will probably never get used again - one of these days I'll have a more radical clear out. 

The area isn't quite finished - there's a plate rack to be constructed.  But it's another sign of progress.
