Whilst searching for a side dish for our Mexican dinner tonight I used my favourite Jamie Oliver and Nigella Lawson sites. I found this lovely recipe Killer Mexican Barbecued Corn On The Cob which I cannot wait to make. This means I also get to use our lovely organic corn from our veggie box in a different way from the usual butter and pepper. Whilst on the sites I always take a peek at the news and I am thrilled to bits about Jamie’s new series American Road Trip starting Tuesday 1st September on Channel 4 at 9pm. It also has the best trailer I have seen in ages that I encourage you to watch here.
The book to accompany the series is also launched Tuesday 1st September…I cannot wait.
On Nigella’s I found this very exciting piece of news…Nigella is doing two book signings for ‘Nigella Express’ in paperback. I really wish that I could be there, but unfortunately I would not be able to escape work that day. So if any fellow Nigella fans can hotfoot it to Oxford Street or Bluewater on Thursday 10th September, take some time out to meet the domestic goddess and come away with a signed copy of ‘Nigella Express’! The details for the signings are as follows:
BOOK SIGNING – THURSDAY 10 SEPTEMBER
John Lewis Oxford Street
London
W1
1:00 – 2:30pm
BOOK SIGNING – THURSDAY 10 SEPTEMBER
Waterstone’s Bluewater
Greenhithe
Bluewater
DA9 9SE
6pm – 7:30pm
I love your new header! Really puts me in the mood for autumn. 🙂
Do you know, as it happens I am planning to go to the Nigella booksigning but I already have a copy of Nigella Express and was wondering how to justify buying another copy!
Would it find a happy home with you? It's a fab book by the way, I was even able to cook from it with a 3 month old baby.
I too love your fall header. Wonderful.
Makes me yearn for fall…it's over 100 degrees out here in California, and we are surrounded by fires. I promise to stop complaining……
More Later,
Kary and Buddy
Hello! Sorry about the delay getting back to you. I am still planning to go to the Nigella signing tomorrow. If you can email me today at sarah@maisoncupcake.com to let me know if you'd like it signed to you personally otherwise I will get one that's just autographed.
By the way, I've tried to follow your twitter button but it doesn't link anywhere. You can tweet me @maisoncupcake – probably most effective way of getting hold of me these days!!
ps I think I share your dream kitchen. I will indulge myself in some fantasy cooker buying in John Lewis tomorrow.
pps I changed my user name to Sarah, Maison Cupcake now instead of mi55moneypenny so it is same person who emailed you before
Hi Morwenna! I've just read your comment on your post, but I've not found your e-mail for the reply! Of course I did not pass YOUR award onto another blogger, as it's YOURS and WELL-DESERVED! I really love your blog, even if you do not post so frequently! Blogging should be fun, and not awork, you don't need to apologize if you don't have enough time!
Hope to see soon the award on your sidebar and don't worry if you can't post about it and pass it onto other bloggers!
Take care! xxx
oh, wish we would have known about this a few days ago! We just started eating so much corn on the cob 🙂
