Getting into the habit of switching a timer on will, I promise, save you from any number of kitchen disasters.

Good kitchen equipment is expensive, but most items last a lifetime and will pay for themselves over and over again.

Memories are fallible and a timer can save a lot of hard work from going out of the window.

Never give way to melancholy; resist it steadily, for the habit will encroach.

I found in my whole career the best thing that can happen to you is that you hear what people want.

A cake is a very good test of an oven: if it browns too much on one side and not on the other, it's not your fault - you need to have your oven checked.
