Garlic and mushrooms and fresh thyme, in close-up. This is a progress shot from getting the ingredients together for dinner a few nights ago – chicken and mushrooms and wine, baked in tin foil, from Happy Days With the Naked Chef. This is one of the first cookbooks I own that wasn’t given to me by my mother or her friends (to ensure that I wouldn’t starve when I started living on my own), so it’s kind of a big deal.

Dinner – this is Spicy Arabian Chicken with Couscous from What’s For Lunch Honey?, which is fast becoming one of my favourite places to look online for Indian and Middle Eastern recipes. Everything I try is consistently delicious, even when I end up substituting half the ingredients based on what I can find at the grocery store closest to my house. Nom nom nom.
