During lockdown, Rosie Kellett sought communal living for connection, leading to a rewarding experience cooking for fellow housemates on a rota. Her background as a chef at E5 Bakehouse made this arrangement appealing. When her cooking videos on budgeting dinners gained popularity, she secured a book deal. Her transition from a decade in the theater to cooking reflects significant personal growth, emphasizing that the choice to share meals transformed her life, providing joy and community during challenging times.
I was desperate for connection and community, and it was all I could afford. But to my surprise it was the single greatest choice of my adult life.
Joining a house where meals were cooked on a rota was not daunting for her because she was working as a chef at East London bakery E5 Bakehouse.
But we would often have guests and delicious leftovers for lunch - a budget dinner doesn't have to be a punishment.
I grew up telling everyone that acting was what I wanted to do but I had been at it for 10 years and I was absolutely miserable.
