Who wants to get naked!?!?!?

My mother and I expereienced a sensation of "giddy school girl" on Saturday. Who knew it would only take a short road trip to University Ave in Palo Alto to make all our culinary dreams come true! Borders Books was hosting none other than Food Network's sexiest chef on tv...Jamie Oliver (aka: the Naked Chef).

He was 40 minutes late due to traffic on 101, but it was well worth the wait. When he finally did arrive, he said a few words....of course I was not listenng to a single one of them, rather looking at his beautiful face. Then, (sigh) the book signing. I handed him my book and he called me "darling" which is such a beautiful word when said with a dashing English accent. Don't you agree? And then it was over...and I turned with my cookbook in hand, knowing that we will probably never meet again. But I am not going to lie...there was a spark between the two of us. But I guess since he is married with a child and the fact that I have a "boyfriend" would make things difficult on our realtionship.

But in all seriousness, he is a really interesting chef who, no ladies, does not cook naked, rather used very few ingredients to make fantastic meals. And these meals range from extra fancy to "Fantastic Fishstick Buttie," in other words, a fish stick sandwich. I look forward to trying out some of Jamie Oliver's creations and I think you should too! And if you are not a "good cook" or you "can't even make toast" not to fear, because in the words of Jamie Oliver he recipies are "Easy Peasy!"
