Because I've been feeling so wretched I've been spending much of my day in bed watching subscription television. This consists of an inordinate number of repeats of pretty much all programs but the good thing is that this doesn't matter when it's a cooking show. Whenever I'm sick I find that, once I'm starting to feel a little better, I get obsessed with cooking whether it's in books or on television. Don't know why because I don't feel even slightly like eating. As a result, though, I've been glued to shows featuring Nigella Lawson, Rachel Koh and Yotam Ottolenghi among others.
Whether this will translate into enthusiastic cooking once I'm better I'm not sure - but Pisces is very hopeful. Still, I now have a whole pile of recipes for snow peas, silverbeet and rainbow chard, all of which are in glut in my vegie garden at the moment. Now to find something other than tabbouleh - which is lovely but I really don't want it every day - for the parsley since that is also running riot.

Sorry you are having such a bad time of it Helen. I get an occasional allergy, but nothing on a regular basis thank goodness. I like Nigella, but never heard of the other cooks you mention. Not that I watch TV very much at all. Get better soon and then go cook up a storm.
Thanks, Jo. I don't watch all that much television usually but when I'm unwell I find the fact that I don't have to think much soothing.
