“The kitchen is an important space in my life — I spend much of my day there — it is where I take breakfast and bake bread, make tea and dinner and feed friends. It is crucial to me that every piece of kit, no matter how mundane or basic, is well made, pleasing to use and good to hold. Why would I want to cook or even wash up with something made of plastic when it can have the gentle tones of wood or porcelain or clay?” — Nigel Slater, A Cook’s Book

the ability to see more beauty in the world is a skill. the more beauty you see, the more comes to you, the more you create yourself. so much of the disempowerment people feel is because they are trained to see the ugly and negative in everything. you have to unpick your mind from the lure of negativity and train yourself to find beauty. if you want a beautiful life, it starts with learning to find the beauty everywhere.
