To get us in the mood for the holiday, and as part of this blog's British themed 2009 Valentines celebration: ~Paglia does Nigella~
Camille Paglia: Nigella is "a merry dumpling barely contained by her midnight-blue velvet evening gown""But anyone who thinks Lawson's talents were mainly a function of her brunette mane and ample bust hasn't experienced her as a pure, disembodied radio voice. [...] English poetry is thriving in the subtle, mellifluous, adjective-laden culinary odes of Nigella Lawson (who has an Oxford degree in medieval and modern languages). After listening to her on my car radio on the way to work, I often arrive for my morning classes in an ecstatic haze."
