I am no Martha Stewart; I am no Marco Pierre White; I am no Rachel Khoo; I am no Jamie Oliver (okay maybe a little Jamie Oliver but not quite). The point is that I am just a sparkly girl standing in front of an oven-and-hob, asking it to love me. I experiment. I am messy. I have no fancy equipment – my oven has even decided not to close its door on me – and the outside world – fully.
