memories hard-work going-out
Memories are fallible and a timer can save a lot of hard work from going out of the window

Getting into the habit of switching a timer on will, I promise, save you from any number of kitchen disasters.
careers people want
I found in my whole career the best thing that can happen to you is that you hear what people want.

art food eggs
A hen's egg is, quite simply, a work of art, a masterpiece of design and construction with, it has to be said, brilliant packaging!
beautiful thinking eating
Food is for eating, and good food is to be enjoyed... I think food is, actually, very beautiful in itself.
