I Time Everything. I'm A Scientist At

My Extravagance Is My Garden - It's The First Thing I Look At Every Morning When I Wake Up. It Gives Me So Much Pleasure.

I Think That I Had A Very Clear Vision When I Started Writing Cookbooks What I Wanted It To Be, And That You Would Open The Book, That You Would Look At The Photograph And Go, That Looks Delicious. And Then You Would Look At The Recipe And Say, I Can Actually Make That And I Can Make It With Ingredients I Can Find In The Grocery Store.

Creme Brulee Is The Ultimate 'guy' Dessert. Make It And He'll Follow You Anywhere.

I Measure Everything, Because I Always Think That If I've Spent So Much Time Making Sure This Recipe Was Exactly The Way I Want It, Why Would I Want To Throw Things Into A Pot?

I Use Other Cookbooks For Inspiration. I Must Say I Tend To Cook From My Own Cookbooks For Parties.
