Generations of New Zealanders responded to pioneering broadcaster Aunt Daisy's nine o'clock radio catchcry, 'Good morning, everybody'. While her nationwide broadcasts ended more than 40 years ago, her legacy lives on and now you can enjoy over 100 of Aunt Daisy's tried-and-true baking recipes in The Aunt Daisy Baking Book. Nostalgic, reliable and delicious, these recipes are now presented with metric measurements and in a modern, easy-to-follow format for today's cooks. Includes 32 colour photographs. All royalties from the book go to fund medical research in New Zealand.
Barbara Basham was the daughter of Aunt Daisy. She served as a nurse in Egypt during World War II before establishing a career in public radio that spanned more than 30 years. Barbara was awarded an MBE for her services to Broadcasting and Community in 1981. Barbara compiled The Aunt Daisy Cookbook from Aunt Daisy's recipes and it has proved to be one of New Zealand's all-time bestselling cookery books.
