I like to be the cook in my relationships. When I'm not slaving over the stove for some boyfriend or other I'm not sure what I have to offer.

This fall, within the period of a few weeks, I fed Bill Clinton, George W. Bush and Barack Obama. First thing a good New York foodie will ask is what did they eat.

I researched and discovered that "SeasonShot" is, indeed, a product. It's tagline? Ammo with flavor. Zing. Palin country.

This is a hardcover version of the perfect mother, a comprehensive encyclopedia poised to become your apartment's version of those dirty old red and white tomes touting butter and beef Wellington that punctuated the holidays of youth.

A thought then clanged in my head: as a culinary student whose mind focused on the culinary arts more than 50% of each day, was I now a foodie?

Now almost done with the first level of culinary school, I found myself on the plane to Austin equally excited about the music festival I was going to as about the food.

I want to know how to make those mooseburgers, and, more to the point, what to put on them once they're ready to serve to your hungry brood.

They taste great in salads, tossed in a fresh marinara or Thai dressing, and help us loose weight!

As I near the end of my first month of culinary school, I find myself facing a new hygiene problem: my hands constantly smell of garlic.

I've been told that you can tell a lot from the way a person chops. Headstrong individuals wail away at an onion, while calmer people are more precise. I was the first person to cut myself in class.

I find myself wanting to run away from this tech-savvy world where people sit at computers in their offices and communicate with others, three feet away, through G-chat.

I like to think of myself as an adventurous eater, but I've got to hand it to China. They grab the gold on the food front.

I say we need a revolution -- one where people spend less time at shopping malls, and more in the kitchen.

Meals should have some pleasant communal and familial function, and food production should support local commerce for its own sake, as well as reducing carbon emissions from long-range air travel.

The personal is political, the second wave feminists liked to say and nothing showcases the hard choices modern mothers face like the issue of what we feed our families.
