Awwwwww

I have the sweetest, most awesome husband ever.

He passed a WH Smith today (British bookstore chain) and he went in and bought me this.

I didn't even know that she had a new book out!

It's the British edition, of course, so it has UK measurements, but I can look up the US equivalents easily enough. Actually, I think that makes it even cooler.

Lance always threatens to get me a Rachael Ray cookbook (I absolutely loathe her), but he knows how much I love Nigella and how much I enjoy her cooking shows...she's so refreshing and calming to watch.

I can't wait to use this book! I collect cookbooks, and this is actually my first celebrity chef cookbook, believe it or not. But Nigella is my favorite...mad love for her.

Why do you hate Rachael Ray?

Her voice is like nails on a chalkboard to me. She was okay when she first started her show, but she seemed to turn up the volume on her voice a lot and her voice got more and more raspy. Now I feel like she's screaming at me when her show happens to be on.

You hate Rachael Ray too? Bonus! I despise that woman.

I've seen Nigella's show a few times (it airs only once on Saturdays here on the Food Network) and I like her stuff.

I love the poetic language she uses to discuss food. It's obvious that her passion for cooking runs deep. She's just awesome.
