Nigel Slater
I've just received Nigel Slater's new book, "The Christmas Chronicles". Nigel Slater is probably the only food writer whose work I read for pleasure rather than merely information.
I have just read a moving line on the subject of candlelight.
"The light gives welcome warms soothes and calms. Faces glow, details are accentuated. Our lines, scars and wrinkles are more beautiful than ever."
