If there's nothing small or vegetarian enough for her she can go to Central Park and chew on some grass.
Did the toppings not end up all over the room? I'm imagining pepperoni stuck to walls, anchovies splattered against lampshadesIn a very roundabout way this reminds me of the time my grandparents went on holiday and bought too much pizza…they ended up having to heat it up in their hotel room as they (sadly) don’t agree with me on the joys of cold pizza.
Anyway, my nan heated the pizza up with a hairdryer

Just why? The usefulness of this book could be contained within a pamphlet
I've read so many books like this over the years but I am yet to find one that gives any helpful or useful advice or insight . Sadly this is still the case. It's not even clear who the target audience would be.. It starts off as a series of money saving tips for the affluent - how to repurpose Diptyque candle jars,, how to source vintage furniture, how to open champagne, how to hire a cleaner.. If there are any actual useful tips - stain removal, hot to descale a kettle. how to protect clothes from moths, they can be easily found on the internet without the need to purchase a £21.99 book.
It appears to be organized in a completely random fashion with tips scattered willy nilly with no clear theme or sectioning jumping from field to field completely nonsensically - from staircarpets to buying a pram, stopcocks to books. For a fashion and beauty editor it contains very questionable style and fashion advice. But this book gets even worse as the author dispenses "advice" on abortions , breastfeeding and depression which is inappropriate and she is totally unqualified to do so. Her comments giving direction on "how to grieve" are incredibly trite and extremely offensive to those of us who have actually experienced grief..
After finishing this book I am not sure what exactly it is meant to be - an interior design manual, a cookbook, a style and fashion guide. All of which are areas completely out of the author's wheelhouse. There are better titles out there in all of these categories. There are far too few handy hints and far too much of her personal anecdotes which add little to the content. Hughes is a beauty journalist and that is her area of expertise and from looking at photos of her online she appears to be far too young to have accumulated the gravitas and benefit of years of experience to advise on such serious matters as are contained in this book. The content could have been so easily contained in a short pamphlet - Wear sunscreen, don't be a slave to fashion and this is how you cook pasta.
Yes yes yes! Last time I was there I had delicious Korean food (in "european" sized portions and the best Japanese dishes I've ever had (still dream about itI follow a Korean woman on YT who now lives in NY. She goes to some amazing eateries - nothing fancy. But bloody hell if you can't find decent food there - in appropriate portion sizes - you must be either beyond fussy or unadventurous. The Korean food looks amazing.
She was v proud when she told me as well (she’d asked me to try and guess how they heated it up first; I failed).That’s hilarious.
A very valid question which I also asked! She said they stuck the pieces to each other (topping to topping) and then heated up the doughy bits. Yes my family are mental.Did the toppings not end up all over the room? I'm imagining pepperoni stuck to walls, anchovies splattered against lampshades
Not possible.That’ll be attributed to a Tattler I imagine.
Would be because the book is not on sale on Amazon yet.Well I just tried to post my review to Amazon and got this..
