I grow herbs near the back door, and you can grow a wonderful selection of herbs and window boxes... My idea is that you should grow what you eat. There's no point in growing something like celeriac - which is very difficult to grow - if you hate it. Mary Berry backboxceleriac share on social
I never leave anything until the morning. I put my jumpers, scarves, and shoes out the night before. You never know what is going to happen. You don't want to get stressed. Mary Berry happenjumperleave Change image and share on social
I don't want food all over the place, down the sides of the sofa... When I shared a flat before I got married, we would always eat around the telly, but not now! Mary Berry eatflatfood Change image and share on social
I think my father couldn't wait to get home to his wife, but I don't know if he was so keen on us children. Mary Berry childfatherhome Change image and share on social
I'm just very grateful that the media has been so kind to me, because there's nothing unusual about me. I'm just a mum and a granny who is teaching cookery on TV. Basically, I'm very ordinary. Mary Berry basicallycookerygranny Change image and share on social
I never fry a doughnut! If you want a doughnut, go and buy one once in a blue moon. It's about everything in moderation. Mary Berry bluebuydoughnut Change image and share on social
You've got to pay an awful lot for your hotel before you get fresh orange juice. If a hotel has got proper orange juice - and you do expect it if you're abroad - I rank the hotel highly. Mary Berry abroadawfulexpect Change image and share on social
I make myself eat one piece of toast for breakfast. When I'm doing 'Bake Off,' I eat soup for lunch. I know what puts on weight for me; it's just over-indulgence. Mary Berry bakebreakfasteat Change image and share on social
I eat carefully because people don't want to see a large person judging cakes. They'll think to themselves, 'That's what happens when you eat cake.' Mary Berry cakecarefullyeat Change image and share on social
'The Great British Bake Off' is family entertainment. There aren't many programmes where all ages can sit and watch from beginning to end. Everything else is violent, cruel, and noisy. We're educational without viewers realising it. Mary Berry agebakebegin share on social
