I love Nigella Lawson (one of my favorite cookbooks is How To Eat) and recently saw on the Food Network that they are going to have a Nigella show! I am so excited!
Blessed are they who can laugh at themselves, for they shall never cease to be amused.

I love Nigella too. We have a lot of English shows here and I've seen all her series - that is one of the good things about Australia - we get the best of the American and the English shows on free-to-air TV. I like her for the reasons already mentioned - she makes no bones about food being for enjoyment, and the pleasures of sharing food with family and friends. And that food doesn't have to be 'gourmet' to be delicious -she loves making 'nursery' food. I have Feast - a great book.
Best wishes,

The thing I like about Nigella Lawson is that she is sexy AND she loves to eat. I get tired of "sexy" always being about a perfectly toned body and deprivation.

I appreciate the earthy nature of Nigella...I also like to read her cookbooks, but I haven't found a lot of recipes that I want to try. I will give her show a look see, though. My fave cookbook author and Food Network star, Rachael Ray, is coming to regular tv in September! That one I will tape!

I've never seen her in person, but please tell me not another chef with cleavage (I love Giadda too, but could she cover up a little?).

I'm so glad you posted this! I used to watch her show all the time and I loved it! She uses real butter and real food! I will have to look for her watch on our cable station. |

I really enjoy Nigella, I have her cookbook of summertime favorite recipes (I just can't remember what it's called at the moment) I really like that she's not pretentious and show-offy. She just gets in there and cooks and makes messes like the rest of us!

I love her!
I can't get cable here but I used to watch her show all the time! Fabulous recipies and I just love that she loves food! Go - Nigella for moving to Food Network. I hope she becomes as 'famous' as Rachel Ray!

Ditto on Nigella!! She is so much fun to watch. What I love about her is- a. she loves to cook, b. she loves to eat and c. she loves family. All three of those things combine into a worthy foray into cooking show indulgence!! I'm glad she's back.

I just checked out How to Eat from the library yesterday. Have heard about NL from rabid bloggers! Her fans are just bonkers about her, so I need to find out what's up. (I don't have cable, so won't see her show, boo hoo.) |
