Nigella vs Gillian


Strange but true – apparently Nigella Lawson and Gillian McKeith are the same age – Nooooo. How is that even possible? 

        
For anyone who isn’t up on their minor TV celebs: Nigella Lawson is the buxom brunette TV cooking guru who favours lots of cream and butter in her cooking and is a dedicated lover of chocolate and PUDDINGS.

Gillian McKeith is of former “You are what you eat” TV fame and advocate of super SUPER healthy living (i.e. seeds and veggie smoothies) and most likely hasn’t eaten chocolate or puddings in decades.  {More recently, Gillian is known for her crazy antics on this year’s “I’m a Celebrity get me out of here”. Jungle living turned McKeith a little bonkers by all accounts}.

Ignoring genetics for a moment and the fact that Gillian’s pic is after weeks of living without a mirror. I’m not sure about you, but in the event that I’m fortunate to make it to 50, I know who I’d rather look like. No question.  

So Nigella’s Kitchen Cookbook has been added to my Christmas wishlist (Thanks Daddy Santa!) and I fell asleep last night catching up on Nigella's cookery show on iplayer – voyeuristic eating bliss!!

Additionally in protest to the cold weather, I am putting 100% Paleo eating on the back burner until Spring and the return of sunshine and the avocado season.  I had soooooo much fun food shopping yesterday.  I managed not to go completely bonkers and buy a lifetime supply of chocolate BUT I did buy some cheese, soup and crackers amongst my normal fare – yay!!!

One of my next year’s resolutions is now to start up a monthly supper club and imitate Nigella's domestic bliss – Anybody interested in trying some yummy Nigella fare with me? xx
