Parmesan shortbreads are the perfect accompaniment to any festive fizz you may be uncorking to celebrate the New Year. They’re #RecipeOfTheDay now in case you want a get a head start on them, but they’re neither difficult nor time-consuming to make. www.nigella.com/recipes/parm...
Parmesan Shortbreads
This is an Italian-inspired recipe that comes to me from Australia via Brazil. To explain: a Brazilian friend, and the best cook I know, Helio Fenerich made it for me, and I had to keep (rudely) askin...

We all have our own traditions: one of mine is the time-honoured pairing of my Christmas ham with these Spiced Peaches that are #RecipeOfTheDay! I’m talking tinned or jarred peaches, obviously, though those in the Southern Hemisphere have the good fortune of fresh. www.nigella.com/recipes/spic...
Spiced Peaches

Heads Up! Your Christmas cheeseboard, cold cuts and sandwiches all need the Christmas Chutney that is #RecipeOfTheDay. And a jar makes a lovely present, too. www.nigella.com/recipes/chri...
Christmas Chutney
Chutney is not the most obviously festive, seasonally indulgent, must-have foodstuff, but it is the cornerstone of my Christmas pantry. I begin to hyperventilate, now as I write, even at the idea of n...

I so adore #RecipeOfTheDay, it’s hard not to sound unattractively boastful when I talk about it. But truly, this Luscious Vegan Gingerbread does have something miraculous about it. It’s dark, sumptuous, squidgy and simply divine – I named it luscious for a reason! www.nigella.com/recipes/lusc...

I am preposterously proud of this squidgy gingerbread, and I don't mind who knows it. It's everything you want out of a gingerbread — sticky, spicy, deeply aromatic — and you would never miss the butt...

I'd recommend the history festival to anyone local - but also to my fellow historians as a really nice thing to do if you're invited.

And if more people in the world were like Tom, and more social enterprises like The Long Table / The Old Dept Store existed then we'd all be in a much better place.

the president using the office to punish americans that didnt vote for him should really be one of the biggest scandals in americas history
Trump is upfront in saying he will use the shutdown to punish Democrats, and here are the receipts. About $27.2 billion cut from Dem districts compared to about $0.7 billion in GOP districts.
