This week is National Pie Week in the UK - not that we Brits need much encouragement to eat pies. But which is the better match - wine or beer?

Back for a second visit to @jeowjeowfood with @ninahcaplan - think it may be my new favourite Thai. The homemade sausage and Thai-style ceviche are both ridiculously good. . . . #thaifood #laofood #sausage #ceviche #jeowjeow #lunch #soho #instafood #foodstagramRustled up a batch of wild cherry cordial from my forthcoming book* last night from some cherries a chef friend brought round from his allotment. One of my FAVOURITE soft drinks. * sorry - can’t reveal the title yet! Oh and the cordial has a secret ingredient which is what makes it sooo delicious. . . . #cherry #fruit #cordial #softdrink #foraged #allotment.@bombolonibristol’s crispy squid and aioli is just the BEST. Can never resist ordering it. . . . #squid #crispysquid #aioli #italianfood #eatlocal #bristolI never used to think of myself as a feminist. I thought those battles had been fought and won but after recent events including the manhandling (literally) of a peaceful protester by a Government minister Mark Field the other day It’s impossible to ignore the fact that men will still use their physical superiority to control women when it suits them. Women of all ages should feel safe as they go about their day to day lives. Other women - and decent, responsible fair-minded men of which there are many - must stand up for them. It’s the 21st century - let’s not go backwards @untameableshrews . . . #womensrights #feminism #empowerment #nonviolence #quotes Follow on Instagram
