Ever since I can remember I have loved pasta with tomato sauce. If someone put a curse on me which meant I could only eat pasta pomodoro for the rest of my life I would say “omg yay”. I am a pasta pomodoro connoisseur - I have eaten it all over the world, from Japan to Cuba. It is also one of the only dishes I can cook myself (apart from eggs as we know). Recipe: Slow roast cherry tomatoes in the oven with oil, salt and garlic on a low heat for 2 hours and then add in the pasta - yum!

Specifically the recipe linked. I made it again last night and I can’t recommend it enough.

Whether it’s actually from scratch (like roasting tomatoes in the oven scratch) or starting w a canned tomato base, making ur own sauce makes me feel like my regular degular pasta dish is elite and I am a Michelin star chef, and who doesn’t love to feel like a star?!
(don’t even get me started on pasta al limone - literally so simple, you feel like a true Italian, and ur audience is wowed)

Just made this and it was SO GOOD it's so quick and easy and has very few ingredients. I discovered my garlic had gone bad so made this and it actually worked better without I think! Only takes ten minutes. This serves one:
Ingredients: 12ish pomodorini tomatoes, olive oil, pasta (fusilli works best for the texture), red wine (old, cheap, nasty is fine), garlic salt
1. Start cooking your fusilli for around ten mins
2. Quarter around 12 pomodorini tomatoes
3. Heat olive oil in a wide low pan on medium heat. Throw in tomatoes when hot enough and stir lots so they don't stick. Add a generous sprinkle of garlic salt
4. Turn heat up high and add a splash of red wine
5. Once pasta has been cooking at least five mins add a big spoon or two of pasta water in with tomatoes. Stir til combined and turn down the heat to low/medium when it has reduced and starts bubbling
6. Add in about 50ml of double cream and stir til well combined and heated
7. Once pasta is done put it in with sauce and stir til well combined
8. I like salt so I also add some Maldon salt flakes on top 👌

I love eggs. Not only are they versatile, they are beautiful. From that perfect oval shape when whole to a puddle of whites and yolk when cracked, their appearance (and taste!) can take on many forms. My apartment in London is somewhat egg themed…I have a rug in the shape of a fried egg, a painting of an egg hung up on my kitchen wall and I keep my jewelry on a ceramic fried egg. I love yellow and white as a colour combo - it is very chic.

I love buying flowers, they add so much life to the house (even though they are technically dying in front of your eyes) They don’t need to be fancy - cheap ones from the local supermarket will do. I like the ceremony of arranging them in a vase and placing them on a random shelf and seeing new colours quite literally blossom. I wish people bought me flowers more, that's really the only gift I crave. If I had it my way I would live in a greenhouse.

I feel like I used to be a lot smarter than I am now, so in a desperate attempt to regain brain cells I have been paying attention to the news. Woo! For a while now, every morning I will listen to the Guardian newspaper's daily news podcast - it focuses on a topical subject within world politics - the latest failing by the Government or the fallout of a natural disaster. It's insightful, nuanced and balanced…And makes me feel like less of an idiot
