Jenny Mallin: a grandmother’s legacy

Serendipity follows me on my journey through a short and fascinating glimpse into the lives of her ancestors. An inspiring talk for anyone who recognises the importance of preserving a family heritage.

About Jenny: With her passion for cooking, India, research and writing, producing this book was a labour of love for Jenny, all the result of a hand-me-down, handwritten cookery book passed down through generations of her family. Now a writer, Jenny has worked in the past as a PA, a Travel Buyer and in a number of television production roles for the BBC. Now living in Kingsclere with her husband Stewart (and a selection of cats), any spare time is devoted to painting, jewellery making and enjoying the outdoors.
