The time has come for this blog to be quietly shelved. Life is just too busy. I will leave it up online as there are recipes that may be useful. But there will be no more posts for the forese...

Instagram has become my go to place for posting quick pictures of the things I'm creating, making, cooking and eating, and I've started a little thread I'm calling #InstaRecipes where some of my...

The weathers dreadful, the sky somehow feels way too low to be comfortable, and the news coming out of France over the last 48 hours is frankly appalling. Its difficult to know how to make anythi...

When the lovely folk of Vale House Kitchen invited me to join them on their pig butchery course last weekend I jumped at the chance. The day promised learning not only how to cut up a pig into...

This weekend we whizzed down the M5 to Berrow Beach, near Burnham upon Sea, our favourite place for a 'Big Sky' day. You know the ones, where you can't take a moment more of the city, nor the fo...

When I heard about The Egg Award 2013 via twitter I decided I'd be a complete fool not to enter a recipe. After all 2013 is the year that I published an entire cookbook devoted to seasonal egg r...

Yet another few weeks whizz by in a multitasking plate-spinning whirlwind and finally this week, after two years of thinking, pitching, writing, eating my egg cookery diary, A Good Egg, is being...

I know its taken a painful while to post these, no rest for the wicked etc etc, and I've been flat out since our Indonesian supperclub. Mainly working on another Hellmanns mayo ad at Aardman anim...

Its been a long time coming but my cooking buddy, Jo Ingleby, and I have decided the time has come to host another supperclub. This time we have shifted venue from my kitchen to something altoge...

A very unexpected treat in the post today - an advance copy of A Good Egg plopped on the door mat mid morning. It has been distracting me all day - I cannot stop looking at it and thumbing t...

Its been way too long since my last post. Life has been a bit of a whirlwind of juggling work and home - in September my son started a new school, meaning we both face a 30-40 minute drive to sch...

I hear this morning on Radio 4 that Britain is officially out of recession. But as we creep slowly, slowly upwards from the trough of the double dip I find myself thinking that for most ordinary...

A week ago today we lost our lovely old tabby cat, Meg, to kidney failure. She was everything I ever wanted in an animal; fiercely independent, gloriously, fastidiously, clean and (at tim...

In my work as a food stylist I have occasionally been asked to do a few peculiar things to food but a job last week was perhaps the most wacky I ever been involved in. People often ask if I use ...

A few more observant people may have noticed that my blog has changed its name - still the same address, just no longer An Egg a Day and now The Urban Kitchen. I recently handed over the manusc...
