Apologies for another long absence here - and thank you so much for all your kind words and prayers on my last post, I'm very grateful for your support. My trip to Japan was a very emotional one, but I'm glad...

It feels rather strange to come back to this space after being away for so long - I didn't mean to neglect it, and I've been keeping in touch on Twitter, but since the big earthquake and tsunami hit Japan...

I know the first month of the year has already gone, but I hope all of you had a great start to the year. I've been working on some exciting projects, and winning this gorgeous selection of pieces must be...

I've been having a hard time keeping up with new cookbooks lately (and the huge pile on my bedside table is getting even higher) - there seem to be so many good books coming out this year. I remember I...

Apologies for neglecting my blog once again - it's been a really busy summer and I've been travelling a lot for work. Although I shouldn't be complaining about being busy, my poor kitchen has also been sadly neglected (I'm the...

Just about when we gave up, the summer seems to have finally arrived in the UK. I was in (very) sunny Sardinia recently, and it was sad to see my tan fading since I got back… I had a great...

Some of you may remember that I've written about Ottolenghi before. They've been running this fabulous place for eight years now, and I still love what they do. I regularly chat with Yotam, the owner and chef patron, who is...

If you are based in the UK and a fan of Spanish food, the chances are, like me, you are a fan of Brindisa too. Since I first tasted their famous chorizo sandwich at Borough market nearly a decade ago,...

I know I don't have much of an excuse for not updating you all for so long, but let me tell you briefly what I've been up to… Since I got back from this trip to Italy, my work got...

I've just come back from a week's trip to Italy - a few days in Rome as well as a wonderful weekend in Amalfi. I will write about the special weekend next time, but I wanted to share some of...

It's been a few weeks since we came back from our motorbike trip to northern Spain - the weather here in the UK is now definitely on the depressing side, so I'm trying to remember the gorgeous weather we had...

This is my entry for this year's Live Strong with A Taste of Yellow that my dear friend Barbara is hosting. The event is to support the Lance Armstrong Foundation in aid of cancer awareness. As you know already if...

After a very promising start, our summer has become a rather familiar story - it already feels quite autumnal in fact - nonetheless, we're trying to make the most of it and I wanted to share some summery images that...

We're in the middle of a heat wave, as if trying to make up for the disappointing last couple of summers - although I'm not complaining (except when I'm on the tube) - it really is lovely to enjoy the...

May, for me, was a rather disappointing month - having had to give up a trip to South America with my dear friends at the last minute got me a bit more down than I expected. Still, I had some...

These photos are from a London markets story that I shot for a US travel magazine a few months ago - I love visiting any sort of markets, and London is certainly not short of interesting ones. I had fun...

Apologies again for leaving this space for so long - while I was AWOL, the spring has arrived, the flowers have been blossoming and our cat has been moulting… We started some work on our little house a while ago...

It's been a cold winter in the UK - everyone seems getting flu including this girl who has just moved here from California. I've been shooting outside a lot for the last couple of months and although I'm fairly used...

Before I start, let me remind you that this year's Menu for Hope launched yesterday - as many of you know already, it's an annual fund raising campaign hosted by our Pim and food bloggers all over the world. Last...

The clocks have gone back this weekend and the gloomy British winter is definitely on its way - I'm seriously considering getting one of these lights this year hoping that it will reduce my ultra grumpiness when I can't see...
