	Artichoke, caper and lemon risotto and a Good Fork Italian box by Jeanne Horak-Druiff Perspective. So much of our experience of this thing we call life is coloured by it.

	Peppadew cheese puffs - perfect Christmas canapés by Jeanne Horak-Druiff Just like living with other people, living alone is something every adult should experience for themselves.

	A hot chilli sauce tasting - 5 sauces compared by Jeanne Horak-Druiff One of the things that has always fascinated me about the human senses is that you can never be entirely sure that you see, smell, hear, feel or taste anything precisely the same way as another person.

	Sautéed Brussels sprouts with caramelised garlic, lemon & chilli by Jeanne Horak-Druiff One of the disadvantages of having our dining room in the conservatory at the back of the house is that there is no hiding your kitchen and your work-in-progress from your guests.

	Sausage and cannellini bean gratin with kale and Parmesan by Jeanne Horak-Druiff In the late summer of 2010 we rented a villa on the Costa Tropical in Spain, near Almunecar (which turns out to be the source of every cherimoya fruit I've seen since!). The villa was gorgeous, perched high up on a hillside with a 180 degree view of the blue Mediterranean and spectacular sunsets to be enjoyed over poolside cocktails.…	1 vote 487 views
	Steak on a blue cheese, spinach & pecan risotto by Jeanne Horak-Druiff As I have said before, I do love a good simile. One of my favourite wine-related similes is this: Men are like a fine wine. They all start out like grapes, and it's our job to stomp on them and keep them in the dark until they mature into something you'd like to have dinner with. Sexist? You bet. Amusing? Every time. In fact, if…	1 vote 798 views
