More fodder

for the anti-elitism crew. Radicchio? And Trevisano at that.

This is way above

all our pay grades. 

I take it back

No way a princess is going to plagiarize if she has to drink the mimosa. And why in the hell had I never heard of sneaky chef? 

Not that I'm prejudiced

but I like this opening volley. Will Gentleman Seinfeld now trash her on national teevee? If so, maybe she can get Paris Hilton to retaliate. 

Olympic image of the day

From "Nibbles" in the Guardian: 

"On Monday, McClatchy Newspapers reported that in Changping, guards carefully monitor the perimeter of Lin Yuan's farm, where carrots, peppers and tomatoes will ripen in what Nibbles imagines to be a sort of vegetable POW camp. If you think that's ridiculous, spare a thought for the 10 secret pig farms set up in the countryside to provide meat for the Olympic Village. Destined for the dinner plate, the animals get a strict two hours of exercise a day, eat organic feed and are monitored around the clock. Guards go so far as to mentally train them, too: regular cries of "Trough it, you filthy beasts!" and "Eat for China!" ring out over the farmyard. (We freely admit our imagination ran away with us at this point.)" 

Davida

and Goliath. Good for her for keeping up the good fight. 

Not so sure

I would eat a funky chicken, let alone a fresh one. Otherwise, great stuff here.
