I Don't Believe In Low-fat Cooking.

I Am Always Surprised When People Read Double Entendres Into My Innocuous Babble.

I Lurch From Chaos To Chaos. I Can't Find My Driving Licence And My Clothes Are Everywhere - Cooking Is The Neatest Thing I Do.

I Was A Quiet Teenager, Introverted, Full Of Angst.

I Was Brought Up An Atheist And Have Always Remained So. But At No Time Was I Led To Believe That Morality Was Unimportant Or That Good And Bad Did Not Exist. I Believe Passionately In The Need To Distinguish Between Right And Wrong And Am Somewhat Confounded By Being Told I Need God, Jesus Or A Clergyman To Help Me To Do So.

The Thing I Liked About Writing About Food When I Started It Was That I Felt I Was Writing About Food In A Different Way. Not Like A Food Writer.
