Girl crush, confirmed
Nigella Lawson is my foodie girlfriend. I've always kind of liked her- she seems very easygoing, and funny, and she cooks the way I do (sort of dumping things in that don't need to be carefully measured, nibbling on the food as she prepares and cooks it). But a recent viewing put my affection for her over the top.
I caught an episode of her new show and it was all about chocolate (that's one point in her favor). And during one scene, she walked into her ginormous pantry and indicated her chocolate stash, admitting that, if given the chance, she would designate about 95% of it for the "chocolate section" (that's another point.) She made a recipe for hot cocoa (yum), instructing the viewer to use full fat milk ("And if you don't use full fat, well, I don't even want to know"), really good pieces of chocolate bar (preferably dark chocolate), and a few splashes of rum (that's a lot of points.)
"I think I must have been a sailor in a prior life," she said, "because I just love rum."
Rum and chocolate. This woman has totally won my heart.
