I love good left-overs. There is nothing as satisfying as standing in front of the fridge and knowing you have a few slices of delicious gammon or roast turkey to turn into something delectable. It’s also satisfying because I feel incredible proud of my resourcefulness and the fact that I’m not wasting when I use up left-overs.

Eggs Benedict has never been something I’ve liked. I’ve liked the idea of it though. It’s such an incredibly elegant and sophisticated dish that I imagine all the rich and famous in NYC eating for brunch on Sundays.
