I was thinking this was something I could avoid, but having read the first two entries, I'm in. Several people commented on how they loved Nigella's writing and books, but I find them long in words, heavy in whatever is the English equivalent to "aw shucks", and too cavalier with details. I am going to check out Cooking in the Moment, though, and have another look at my copy of Swanson's book. Darn you, Jennifer!

Of course, here it is 1/16 and I don't think either of us has thought about it since -- you're right about the cookbook. We went to the bakery in NYC last summer and I remember the cereal milk soft serve ice cream and the compost cookies especially fondly.
