Today is the last day that According to Eve is free in the UK, so please do take advantage, even if it's only to look at the glorious pics! (although the love story between the lines will break your heart too)

Oh dear. I wanted more than one word to build up more of a story. Should’ve stopped after picturesque!

This just popped up in FB memories - the label from a new coat. Anyone else need red powder bosom friends?? 😂

I really didn’t expect it to be a word.

Ooh, can I play?

I knew it would be the greenery!

I may have got carried away making bunches of greenery for a Xmas fair tomorrow. I really hope I don’t have to bring them all home again! 🫤

If you need an Xmas present for a grannie, great Aunt or your lovely elderly neighbour, please consider According to Eve. They're so hard to buy for, but most of them love a slice of nostalgia :-)

We had free cheese in our local recently, unfortunately it was one night only 😁

This ol’ jug looked tired so I gave him a red and green makeover. It’s the #decoupage version of wearing a Xmas jumper. 😁

A lady from Hong Kong wanted to tell me how interesting she found 'According to Eve' as someone who hadn't been raised here.
She doesn't use Amazon. By the time my hair was done, she had written this. How lovely!

Do you want to see my latest review? It’s possibly a tad over the top.
Of course you do, you might want to buy According to Eve for your Granny. She’s so hard to buy for, it’d be an easy win. 😁

Woke up to find the According to Eve is riding high in the charts again at no 3. maybe one day she'll make it to the top spot!
A massive thank you to everyone who bought it over the weekend 🙂

Well this was a surprise. A guy I haven't spoken to for years liked my my recent radio interview so he decided to animate it! So if you missed me talking about finding Mum's diaries, you can catch up :-)

So touched by this lovely new review. It’s official - readers are way better than me at describing According to Eve! Thank you so much, Old Mr T 😁

There's an interview about finding Mum's diaries/According to Eve going out on BBC Radio Oxford at 11.40am on Easter Monday.
It includes more details about what happened between Eve and Fred that I've discovered since writing the book. I'd love it if someone listened! :-)

In According to Eve, it's not exactly clear why Eve and Fred broke up. In this radio interview (from BBC Radio Oxford) you'll discover what I've learnt since. It's being repeated on Easter Monday.

Had an outrageous review for According to Eve. Now everyone will think it’s a Jilly Cooper novel!
