This is the Guardian.

I'm Grace Dent and this is Comfort Eating from the guardian.

A podcast where we pay homage to the lesser celebrated foods in life. Because even as a restaurant critic, I believe the food that matters most is often that snack

you cobble together when you curled upon the sofa.

Each week I asked my guest to lift the lid on what comfort foods have seen them through their lives.

Because you can tell a lot about a person from what they eat behind closed door.

Hello friends, you find me bent double at the dishwasher. I'm unloading the clean breakfast dishes and loading in the lunch clutter.

Preparing for my very exciting comfort eating guest. I'm going to

guess that the rather haphazard way that I'm going about this would raise the

odd eyebrow from certain sections of society or rather

members of my household. The forks and knives are jumbled up, the glasses and cups,

well they're all muddled up too,

and no, I have not rins anything.

The conflict that comes from different loading styles of me and my man can be quite fiery because

there are people who load the dishwasher 16 times a week perhaps haphazardly, versus the people who do it maybe once a month,

but are loading it as if they're trying to pass a national dishwasher loading exam.

My point is, while some people are pontificating over where

knives and forks go, others are just getting it done. My lesson is, and I genuinely mean this from the heart, sometimes you have to be a

bit brass-necked about ignoring perfectionists, because if it wasn't for little old slap dash me we'd all be drinking out of shoes.

Can you tell this grands my girls?

Leave it great.

Leave it.
