I'm afraid very little, Nic. I let my missus do that. I have just been told by my GP that I need to lose weight, and I'm sure my lardy form is due to the fact that I don't take great interest in the food I eat - yet I eat a lot of it.
I hate food preparation. It's dull to peel vegetables, for example.
I am very lazy, really - BUT one change over the last couple of months has paid off. We have a box of organic vegetables from a farm nearby delivered to the house every Thursday evening. The box is delivered with a fairly random selection of vegetables. The difference in taste compared to Tesco or Sainsbury's vegetables is HUGE.
I used to grow vegetables - mostly spinach - on the exact patch where I've had the smoke shack built. Priorities, eh!
I'm very faddy about food. My dream diet would be red meat and soft fruits forever and ever.
I've got to do something about my food consumption which is currently without thought. I'm going to try to take more interest in it generally. I'm not an absolute loss, but I don't think this through enough at all.
In fact I think I would go as far as to say I don't like food much at all.
I know Robusto's just made a nasty mess of an Indian carry out, while I have been slaving over a mushroom risotto, cooked from scratch and finished off with parmesan and white truffle oil, with fresh asparagus and a wonderful glass of nicely chilled Chablis.
I tend to repeat a favorite dish over and over again until I get it right, I am enjoying perfecting this one so much it could take me years.
Takes about 45 minutes and is extremely theraputic.
