My Friends Books Been Published!!
38 Answers
A year ago I became online friends(like we all are) with an amazing woman. I stumbled upon a FB group she set up as she was desperately trying to feed her children with practically no money. The group was/is called HUNGRY TUMS ON A BUDGET. Well it just grew and grew - and before you know it she had 11k members! All helping each other with food ideas, recipes etc. Then someone said why not make it into a book?? So she did! It’s only a thin book but it was out on AMAZON yesterday, and she even put one of my photos on the cover! Am so so excited for her - nobody deserves it more. So if you want to take a peek the book is called HUNGRY TUMS ON A BUDGET THE BOOK. Very very proud online buddy!! X

"Would it be possible to copyright a recipe in the UK?
No, any copyright that subsists in a book of recipes would not be infringed by the act of making a dish according to one of the recipes. The ingredients of the Pechu sandwich which was the subject of US litigation (which combined chicken, lettuce, tomato, cheese, and mayonnaise on a bun) would not benefit from copyright protection in the UK.
There might be limited copyright protection available for the typographical arrangement of a recipe book (ie the layout of the text). However, this will only prevent unlicensed scanning and photocopying of the book--the copyright would not be infringed by making a dish according to one of the recipes, or even utilising the same recipe in another cookery book."

For Funks Sake you lot of miseries.
Well done her for doing something and not just sitting at home and moaning. Years ago before internet, etc., I also edited and wrote a cook book. Hard work. So although I don't need another cook book congratulations and all best wishes to her.
PS would never use a kindle as you can't make notes, adaptations, etc. I have my grandmother's cook book when she came to this country and it is full of little notes and comments in her handwriting. The nearest I ever got to her and I treasure it.
Smow - good luck to her.
