A year of emotional eating? Don’t feel guilty. We need comfort, not ketosis
You know how people fill online baskets with clothes they never buy? I do that now with food. I see something advertised, compile an extravagant order, then don’t follow through.

Thomasina Miers’ recipe for new-season garlic, fennel and thyme cassoulet
