Has anyone ever seen her show Nigella Bites? I use to love watching this show but I haven't seen it in ages. Is it still around?

I saw it when I was on vacation in Canada on the Food Network... I love her! I wish they would show her on the Food Network here. I think it's the metric thing though.

I haven't seen it in forever either. I used to love her.

There were a couple of other food shows that I used to watch a lot. The Two Fat Ladies springs to mind but I'm sure there were others as well.

I totally loved her show. It was on the Style network here in the States. You can go to their website and find some of her recipes. I know her DH died of tongue cancer a few years ago. She remarried last year.

thats so sad about her husband :( I wonder why the show is off the air here now, it was done in such an interesting and enjoyable format.

I miss watching Nigella Bites. :( She started a new show called Forever Summer, but I am not certain if it airs on the Style Network or the Food Network.

Found this website if you are interested. :) Nigella Lawson-the domestic goddess (http://www.channel4.com/life/microsites/N/nigella/)

and I just remembered she has her own site :o Official site (http://www.nigella.com/)

I didn't like the Forever Summer shows. It just didn't have that "personal" feeling.

I love the way she writes..

Me too. Sometimes I just sit down and read her cookbooks instead of looking for recipes.

I do that all the time, there are some recipes that I want to make when it gets cooler but alot of times I just read her books just to enjoy the way her writing flows and the sound of the recipe.

Nigella Bites airs on Wednesdays at 7am on the style Network

Here on the West Coast it's on at 4am on Style. I have all her books except Feast, some of her recipes sound kinda weird to me (guess I should try making them :D ) but some are super yummy.

I definately recommend Feast, Each chapter is a different holiday or special event, it also has kid friendly foods, late night foods and even weddings and recipes just for one.
Our first Halloween in a house (our apartments to small now) we're going to have a big party and I'm going to use a few of the recipes from there.. Some of them are kinda gross sounding but perfect for halloween..

Anyone else here a Nigella fan? I have all of her cookbooks. Every recipe I've tried so far has been great, but her cookbooks are just as fun to read for the way they're written ... she obviously enjoys food and writing and it shows.

Her lemon linguine is a favorite in our family.

I used to LOVE watching Nigella back when I had Style network... is she still on that channel? I have her cookbook Nigella Bites, although I have yet to attempt anything from it :o I love how she makes it look easy, and how she really enjoys what she prepares... Her children were adorable, although I always felt so sad when they showed clips of her husband with the kids, since he passed away (from throat cancer, I believe).
