My grandparents came to the US to escape pogroms. That is the reason that I exist. We have to pay it forward.

That hashtag…wow. Some people are just cold hearted and evil. As someone who has experienced anti Asian hate…I know what being unwanted by people in this country feels like. It isn’t great. Maybe hate ends when we end it. Let’s use #WelcomeHome .

"This is my wife taking a nap. In an hour she will wake up, put on her scrubs and get ready for work.

The tools and items she needs to perform her job will be gathered and checked meticulously - her hair and makeup will be done quickly. She will complain that she looks awful. I will disagree, emphatically, and get her a cup of coffee.

She will sit on the couch with her legs crossed under her and try to drink it while happily playing with the toddler that's crawling all over her.

She will occasionally stare off blankly as we talk; silently steeling herself for the coming shift. She thinks I don't notice.

She will kiss the baby, she will kiss me and she will leave to go take care of people that are having the worst day of their entire lives:

Car wrecks, gunshot wounds, explosions, burns and breaks - professionals, poor, pastors, addicts and prostitutes - mothers, fathers, sons, daughters and families - it doesn't matter who you are or what happened to you.

She will take care of you.

She will come home 14 hours later and remove shoes that have walked through blood, bile, tears and fire from aching feet and leave them outside.

Sometimes she will not want to talk about it. Sometimes she can't wait to talk about it.

Sometimes she will laugh until she cries and sometimes she will just cry - but regardless of those sometimes she will be on time for her next shift.

My wife is a nurse. My wife is a hero."

Even now, in the middle of the worst moment since 1948, there are groups of Palestinians and Jews working to forge a future together. Because there's no other future. Any word or action that helps these people move forward is good. Anything that pulls them apart is bad.

"Tonight we do not look for God among the opulence of the world, or among the idolatries of wealth or among those eager for power or among the intrigues of the powerful. God is not there."

I am currently making Nigella’s Redder Than Red Cranberry Sauce.

Santa may not be able to guide his sleigh tomorrow night as I am harnessing the power of Rudolph’s nose.

Only joking, kiddies; this is what gives Ruldoph his secret power to shine across the night sky!

If everyone, everywhere, truly accepted that seven million Jews and seven million Palestinians are not going anywhere, and that any possible future has to include and encompass both, the whole energy around this conflict would shift. There, and even more so around the world.

Can’t say how thrilled and grateful I am to see this from one of my all-time food heroes. Thank you, @Nigella_Lawson 🙏💙

@NanaTeacher22 So sorry.

In November of 1977, in the most dramatic and courageous act I have ever seen from a political leader, President Sadat of Egypt got on a plane and went to Israel (an enemy at the time, against which he had launched a surprise attack just four years earlier), and delivered a gorgeous speech to the Israeli Parliament that included this paragraph:

"Today, through my visit to you, I ask you: why don't we stretch our hands with faith and sincerity so that, together, we might destroy this barrier? Why shouldn't our and your will meet with faith and sincerity, so that together we might remove all suspicion of fear, betrayal and ill intentions? Why don't we stand together with the bravery of men and the boldness of heroes who dedicate themselves to a sublime objective? Why don't we stand together with the same courage and boldness to erect a huge edifice of peace that builds and does not destroy? An edifice that is a beacon for generations to come—the human message for construction, development and the dignity of man? Why should we bequeath to the coming generations the plight of bloodshed, death, orphans, widowhood, family disintegration, and the wailing of victims?"

Why, indeed. Why.

Basque Burnt Cheesecake by @Nigella_Lawson

A light and tangy biscuit-free cheesecake which fully shines on its own but is enhanced with blackberries and a beautiful liquorice sauce.
