Its behind the paywall so I won't link but wtf was that article in The Times about? It read like you are suggesting mothers need to sign up to gourmet cooking classes because working and being a mum aren't enough. You are kidding, aren't you? Or was it badly edited?

Oh my....

No. I think the fact that I wasn't saying that came across pretty clearly - journo used my words tongue in cheek about the hinterland stuff and ending quote was me saying "We absolutely are not saying that you need to learn how to bake perfect cupcakes..."

I did read that last quote but still thought that the overall tone of the piece implied that cooking lessons were one of the main things on offer. It would have been good if the article had explained more clearly what other options are. But that's a problem with the writer I think not the interviewee.
