Comments on: About http://www.notquitenigella.com/2007/07/15/about/ The slightly eccentric eating, cooking and travel adventures of a Sydney girl who loves cakes, cooking, Nigella Lawson and eating. She eats, breathes and dreams food and indeed will never get cable TV as she'd quit working and watch the Food Channel all day long.

I would have my Sicilian mom come down from the heavens and cook for me her very simple pasta sauce using fresh sun-ripened tomatoes and basil from the yard... If may grandfather would join her it would be nice to include a couple bottles of his home-made strong Zinfindel... Also my northern Italian grandmother's frittau, sweet pumpkin fritters sprinkled with powdered sugar. Well, not to upset the other women in the family I'd invite them all down so as to cook their famous sweet and savory dishes. I'd most surly approach the Pearly Gates happy and with grand indigestion. My last meal?

I'm not sure if they are referring to your contest or their own but thought that if she provided both answers they would applaud her tenacious research. Thanks in advance and I love your site/blog whatever its called.
