THE INSTANT #1 SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER

From award-winning writer Nigel Slater, comes a new and exquisitely written collection of notes, memoir, stories and small moments of joy.

'Nigel Slater’s prose is the rarest delicacy of all: exquisite yet effortless, filled with heart, tenderness, yearning and humour' ELIZABETH DAY

For years, Nigel Slater has kept notebooks of curiosities and wonderings, penned while at his kitchen table, soaked in a fisherman’s hut in Reykjavik, sitting calmly in a moss garden in Japan or sheltering from a blizzard in a Vienna Konditorei.

These are the small moments, events and happenings that gave pleasure before they disappeared. Miso soup for breakfast, packing a suitcase for a trip and watching a butterfly settle on a carpet, hiding in plain sight. He gives short stories of feasts such as a mango eaten in monsoon rain or a dish of restorative macaroni cheese and homes in on the scent of freshly picked sweet peas and the sound of water breathing at night in Japan.

This funny and sharply observed collection of the good bits of life, often things that pass many of us by, is utter joy from beginning to end.

‘I loved this. It is a secular book of hours – thoughts and pleasures beautifully cadenced and generously placed’ Edmund de Waal

‘?Nigel Slater has a magical capacity to find beauty in the smallest moments. A nourishing, sustaining book’ Olivia Laing

‘His evocative, uplifting observations are a balm for life: a prose-poem for eaters and a spiritual companion for thoughtful cooks. A true and enduring joy’ Nigella Lawson

‘You can’t always feel buoyant and grateful but noticing – and getting pleasure from – the seemingly insignificant is a good way to live. As he says, feel the “small moments of joy”’ Diana Henry

Beautiful Sage Green Set That is Super Soft and Cozy!
Color: Sage Green, Size: Queen
​I am absolutely in love with this sage green bedding set. The queen comforter has a gorgeous pre washed crinkled texture that gives the whole bedroom a really cozy, aesthetic look without needing to be ironed. It is incredibly fluffy and has just the right amount of weight to it, making it perfect to use all year round. The brushed sheets that come with the bed in a bag are surprisingly soft against the skin, and everything fit my queen mattress perfectly right out of the box. ​The color is a beautiful, calming sage green that matches my room decor perfectly. I have already washed the sheets and comforter once, and they held up great in the machine without losing their softness or shrinking.

Soft All-in-One Queen Bedding Set With Lightweight Comforter
Color: Beige, Size: Queen
This 7-piece queen bedding set is a solid all-in-one option for anyone looking to refresh a bedroom with a clean, aesthetic look without spending much. The comforter has a lightweight feel with a soft crinkled texture that gives it a relaxed, lived-in appearance while still looking modern and put together on the bed. The included sheets and pillowcases are soft and smooth against the skin, with enough comfort for year-round use. The comforter itself is light but still provides enough warmth for most seasons, making it practical for both warmer and cooler months. Fit is generally accurate for standard queen mattresses, and the set comes complete with everything needed, which makes setup simple and convenient. The overall look is cohesive, with a soft beige tone that blends easily into most room styles. While it is not a luxury heavyweight bedding set, it offers good comfort, style, and value for the price, making it a strong choice for guest rooms, first apartments, or an easy bedroom upgrade.

Standard Comforter. Thin Scratchy Sheets
Color: Dark Green, Size: Queen
This is an ok set for the price. I’m mostly using the comforter for a guest room. It’s a light-medium thickness. The color and size are true to description. The sheets that come with the set are very thin and not as soft as the comforter.

Comforter is nice, sheets are alright. Color is true!
Color: Burnt Orange, Size: Queen
This is a decent comforter set. The actual comforter isn’t too heavy, and would be perfect spring through fall in the Midwest. It’s a true queen size fit and the burnt orange color looks as it does in the photos. I ordered these before it mentioned they’re polyester. They definitely don’t feel as breathable as cotton sheets but as far polyester goes, they feel soft. The sheets wrinkle easily but the comforter feels durable. If you’re looking for an affordable sheet set and you’re cool with polyester, this is a good option. Also of note is that 2 of the pillow cases have a little extra fabric on the outer rim to look more “decorative.”
