Hi Pete!
I`ve lurked on this thread for some time. In fact I`ve bookmarked loads of your recipes and tried most of those out!
Decided it`s time I "outed" myself and thanked you properly. I`m not a very good or enthusiastic cook so your recipes have been a lifesaver!!
Your peanut curry is now a family favourite. My grandchildren love it and I don`t feel left out having salad while their munching on something scrummy!!
Even my very hard to please hubby enjoys your recipes!!
Thanks again, Pete!!

Only just seen this question! First set up bookmarks on Google (that`s what I did)
When you`re on minimins and you want to bookmark something hover over "share". It`s next to the "like"
You`ll then be given some choices, including Google bookmarks.
You`ll be asked to sign in to Google if you haven`t already done so.
Then you can bookmark the item. Hope this helps!
