fire stories disappear
But I read Catching Fire. I loved disappearing into a story.
hands ideas clothes
I'm better with my hands, and I always loved the slightly romantic idea of starting with bits of wood and being able to create something to sit on, to eat from, to store your clothes in.
thinking fire missing
I'm probably a bit romantic about it, but I think we humans miss having contact with fire. We need it.
community best-food poorest
The best food I've ever eaten in my life has come from the poorest communities.
monday recipes thursday
My general rule is that if everyone knew how to cook fresh produce from their local area, and Monday to Thursday within 20 minutes, you know, there's millions of recipes out there to be had.

When I was a schoolkid, I went to Castleton quite a few times. We'd be there studying rocks, going down these big hills. It was a great place!
pain class people
Young people can be disruptive and screw up classes. But even if they are being a pain in the arse it's a cry for help - they don't feel like they are being listened to.

Basically, we're taking a product that would be sold in the cheapest way for dogs, and after this process, is being given to human beings.

If Obama wanted to make radical changes to America's health long-term, all he has to do is treble the price of sugar and salt.
looks golden junk
Just because the Americans are so good at rattling out accessible and cheap junk food, nobody looks twice when it comes to their food. But there are golden nuggets everywhere.
school cake two
I challenge you, to go to any school and open 50 lunchboxes, and I guarantee you there will be one or two cans of Red Bull, there'll be cold McDonald's and jam sandwiches with several cakes.
turkeys parent failing
Heads know that failing to invest in good, nutritious food is a false economy and parents won't tolerate reconstituted turkey being put back on the menu.
cooking trying that-one-person
It's just us trying to start a movement where everybody passes on a bit of cooking knowledge. We estimate that one person can potentially affect 180 others very quickly so we're just trying to spread the word.
