Nigella certainly is a memorable name.......came from her father——Nigel——an aunt’s suggestion when she was born.
Well, it’s served her well. Her father was chancellor of the exchequer under Thatcher and she’s a descendent of the famous Lyons Tea fortune. Dutch Jews, I believe. A very beautiful woman, charming and a great writer as well.
BTW, I just bought a book by Jennifer Paterson, one of the Fat Ladies. An excellent book of recipes according to the Catholic calendar. Charming and with her trademark humor.
