WELCOME
I love cooking, likewise writing. Lucky then that the route to combining these two was time spent in restaurant kitchens as a chef in my 20s. From the first restaurant I worked in I knew there was something enthralling about working in the food industry. The people and the passion, the obsession to detail, and the fun, goodness, there was an awful lot of fun. Late nights, early mornings, I thrived and met some wonderful people along the way.
Fast track a little, I am a mum to three daughters and my day to day is different now. I used to get asked all the time “what do you feed your kids?” to which, bemused but flattered, I’d reply with whatever it was I had cooked that day. Social media stepped in at the right time for me and @5oclockapron was born. You could call me one of the originals on instagram. I have written 11 cookery books and continue to post daily, a digital diary of family food, join me.
