Eating for England

I heart Nigel Slater.

I also heart the strawberries bought yesterday that have perfumed the whole fridge with intense deliciousness and which will be turned into a tart this afternoon.

Pleasantly surprising, too, was the Sundowner apple I ate last night. I am a Granny Smith fan, addicted to mouth-puckering tart crisp crunchiness. The Sundowner is milder, less lip-chapping, but pleasingly crisp.

I heart him too.

Have you read the new book? Much like toast, but a little tastier even than that...

Not yet! I have a library reserve, and am eagerly waiting for it to come in. If the excerpts in The Observer are anything to go by, I am sure I will love it.
