Girl Crush: The Illustrious Nigella Lawson


When I was growing up I was never the first option to play the princess, being a natural brunette I always had to be the boy.

My envy of the girls with long blonde hair was soon forgotten when I was 14 and discovered someone far better than any golden haired princess...Nigella Lawson.

With her thick dark hair and smouldering features I loved pretending to be Nigella in the kitchen when no one was home.

To this day I am still guilty of coming home late at night, throwing my coat over a chair and imitating the way she glides effortlessly around the kitchen, licking and fondling everything in sight as if it's foreplay for the taste buds. And then I'll probably choke on a slice of cheese or Ms P will walk in and ask me whatever the fuck I'm doing whispering sweet nothings into the fridge.

Let's leave it to the expert shall we? Some of my all time favourite Nigella moments...


Caramel Croissant Pudding: Heels off, jewellery off and bourbon on the table, this is how you make caramel and exercise Nigella style.




Chocolate Pistachio Fudge: This Christmas I'm giving Nigella my heart...the way she pours condensed milk makes me want to cry.




And of course chocolate, chocolate and more chocolate: Nigella takes us through her repertoire of cooking chocolate all whilst dressed in a scant satin robe.



Has Nigella worked her magic and left you longing for something sweet and comforting? I thought so, click here for all of her recipes or click here for a waist friendly option: My Sugar Free Not-So-Naughty Chocolate Brownies.



Life's short, eat chocolate and act like a goddess even when you're just microwaving Easy Mac.
