It's midnight, post-Nigella, and all I can say is: wow. What a nice lady--and how gorgeous is she?We had a lovely crowd at UBS to celebrate the release of Nigella Express. We had a little Rosemary Clooney to soothe the masses, and people snacked on the salmon, tomato salad and rocky road bars. 
They also sampled virgin "ginger pom" punch (equal parts gingerale and pomegranate juice, add pomegranate liquer if you're over 21).

As promised, Nigella answered a few questions, and then signed books for two hours before jumping on a plane. (Some answers to the pressing questions she addressed: oysters, a bowl of nuts and a glass of wine; Dickens' David Copperfield, Austen's Persuasion, Venetian chicken from How to Eat, preparing soup helps her get her thoughts in order before she sits down to write).
She was absolutely delightful, despite her hectic schedule. She's one class act!
