I checked him out on Google images and yes, he is the same person. I love his section of the programme where he cooks in front of a roaring fire in an old fashioned kitchen - concocting all sorts of weird and wonderful things.elaine https://www.blogger.com/profile/17075935631756457901noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5974379645841145390.post-24863907241917581872016-01-16T20:05:45.348-06:002016-01-16T20:05:45.348-06:00These jellies are like works of art.

She was interviewed and even got onstage to sing one of the old songs. It's on youtube and I watched to whole thing and interview.

It should be in a museum. With all those layers of color and the depth of the gelatin, they are more like sculpture. About your post beneath with Joni Mitchell. I agree that she a once in a lifetime lyricist, singer and musician. I have a fond memory of arriving home from school, around 11th grade, to an empty house, giving me the opportunity to play my BLUE album on my dad's stereo as loud and often as I wished. I haven't heard anything about her in a while, so I assume she has not recovered.jerilandershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07418564262425621746noreply@blogger.com
