#NaturaLitsy #MidWinterSolace

So, I have well over 300 cookbooks & it‘s hard to pick a favorite to tecommend for today‘s #FridayNightShare. The lagged book is definitely in my Top 5 cookbooks I own & sits on my bedside table as I pick it up & read it as well as cook from it. If you like giant (544 pages) books that are as much about the writing as the recipes, you‘ll love it too.🤍 British Chef, Nigel Slater chronicles a year in his kitchen ⬇️

DebinHawaii … with notes & simple recipes, many that I make over & over. Pictured (from my blog) are: Pasta with Creamy Basil-Caper Sauce & Toasted Pine Nuts, Bánh Mì ('Sour, Hot, Crisp, Soft. A Sandwich for the Senses'), Zucchini with Basil & Goat Cheese on Toast, Little Green Onion & Ricotta Omelettes, Needs Must' Fettuccine Alfredo 4mo
IndoorDame 300 cookbooks! I‘m super jealous! Where do you find room? 4mo
DebinHawaii @IndoorDame Shelves, cabinets, stacked on a credenza… I‘m pretty much out of room! 🤷🏻‍♀️😆 4mo

TheBookHippie Oooo!! I now have permission to purchase more cookbooks 🤣♥️👩🏻‍🍳 4mo
AllDebooks I kind of freaked out then, thinking there's a NS cookbook I don't have. He's the best food writer in 4mo
AllDebooks Cont. my opinion. 4mo
AllDebooks I follow him on IG, and honestly, he won the internet this week with his quince tart/the comments! 🤣🤣 Warning - adult content https://www.instagram.com/p/C089GRnLYCM/?igsh=MXBubmd0bDdmZjM3cg== 4mo
DebinHawaii @AllDebooks Yes! I laughed so hard at that mainly because like almost every other commenter, I immediately went to the comments thinking I must have an especially dirty mind & finding we were all thinking the same thing! 🫣😱😂 4mo
DebinHawaii @AllDebooks And I agree with you on him being the best food writer! He kindly commented on an Instagram post I made with one of his recipes a few years ago & I nearly passed out! 🤍🤍🤍 4mo
AllDebooks @DebinHawaii wow, that is awesome x 4mo
AllDebooks @DebinHawaii I think everyone had the same reaction. I've been laughing about that for days. The comments are SO British x 4mo
LeahBergen I loved his Christmas Chronicles and now I‘ll have to buy this one. 😉 And yes, that quince tart! 😂😂 4mo

#funfridayphoto Nigel Slater cookbooks are just as much (if not more) about the writing as the recipes, which is why I keep these 500+ page tomes by my bed to read at night. 'Notes From the Larder' (532 pgs) was taken from his 'hodgepodge' of notebooks-a kitchen diary w/recipes. 'Tender' (620 pgs) is an ode to his garden/vegetables. 'Ripe' (not shown) is about fruit. Did I crop the photo enough so you can't tell that my bed is unmade today?! 😚😴

Dolly I've heard that it's unhealthy to make a bed. It needs to air. See, you're just being smart!😊 7y

DebinHawaii @BethFishReads And I already knew I liked you! 😆 @Larkken I do pull the duvet over most everything for the same reason but nothing gets tucked or arranged. 🐱😬 7y
DebinHawaii @KarenUK One of my all time favorites! @EvieBee84 I have not seen him much on television either but love all his books. Toast was excellent. 👍📚 7y
Weaponxgirl He is one of my cooking gods, one of the few food authors I will just trust completely 7y
Weaponxgirl Remember he has a weekly column for the guardian still :) 7y
