This Christmas, Graham and I made recipe books for our friends and families. We included the recipes for 12 of our favourite cakes and sweet treats, alongside original photographs. In the process, I learnt to use Adobe InDesign (on a pretty basic level).

We worked together to pick recipes, and decide on fonts, layouts and images. We spent a long time thinking about binding. So long, in fact, that we nearly ran out time to actually bind them – we ended up settling for a simple solution, and used white ribbon.
