0:44.9	Welcome to Grow Cook Eat Arrange, the podcast of me, Sarah Raven.
0:55.4	And today I've got a wonderful guest, Hazel Gardner, who I'm just going to tell you how I came across her actually, which is Jonathan Buckley, who I'm sure many listeners know about. He's a photographer I've worked with now for 27 years. Anyway, he came

1:54.8	So I knew at kind of 13 what DeGrea wanted to do, which is quite a bizarre, but it was
2:00.2	a cold fashion promotion, which is still a bizarre, but it was a cold fashion promotion,
