All of the recipes in Wells’ books are not long or difficult and ingredients are readily available. Basically, as most of the world does not have a high living standard, the recipes are for very affordable meals.

For others, rhubarb is a sure sign of a hard-earned springtime and promise of fabulous rhubarb pies, rhubarb and equally-fresh strawberry pies.
