    My Marmite on toast feels woefully inadequate now! The kettle is on – I always need to prepare a cup of tea to go with my marmite on toast; it's ritual!

    Joy: I agree! They didn't cover that part, but rest assured we all had a big cup of tea with the toast.
    Natalie: too right!

    I'm sorry but there was a woeful amount of marmite on that slice of toast. Is it really so long since I was a marmite debutante?

    Danny: Aga toast is for the sophisticate who is also in touch with their paleo/hunter-gatherer side. Crispy on the outside, squodgy on the inside, with additional no extra fee blackened bits.

    Donald: I know! Paltry isn't it? But I do think that one of the things that put foreigners off is that they put too much on at first and can't handle it.

    Kerstin, that was hilarious. I'm off to the kitchen to make a Marmite on toast now (got a jar of Guinness Marmite).
    PS Did I not give you one of those fab Estonian wooden butter knives in Israel???

    I love your Marmite video except we use vegemite down here. You are a natural and made me laugh out loud especially demonstrating how to put the butter on the toast. I am very envious of that Aga ! and a nice cup of tea.

    toast without anyone else's input is very flat, making it the perfect uncovered canvas on which to put a scope of garnishes.

Did you know that what we call heartache is actually stomach ache? It’s now recognised that rejection actually causes physical as well as psychological pain. A study shows that pain relief medications such as paracetamol can alleviate heartache. Some of our emotional pain is autonomic: it’s referred to as polyvagal theory. #heartbreak #foodwriting #lovehurts #takotsubo #dopaminewithdrawal

I spent £35 in a short space of time as each dessert was £5 but it was a fun experience. Ophelia said ‘lovely flowers’ which shows a degree of sophistication for a 2 year old.

I served this with green salad with cucumber, avocado, pumpkin seeds and a mustard lemon olive oil dressing. #familylunch #sundaylunch #pestopasta #pestgenovese
