Rep Power: 2 | Chicagoans: Flayster and Nigellie In Town
I won't be back in Chicago for a few more weeks, but I thought I'd let all you bundled-up Midwesterners know about some FN stars making local appearances: Bobby Flay shares recipes from Bobby Flay's Mesa Grill Cookbook: Explosive Flavors From the Southwestern Kitchen (Clarkson Potter, $35) at 2 p.m. Thursday at Williams-Sonoma, Oakbrook Shopping Center, Oak Brook, and 7 p.m. at Borders, 830 N. Michigan.
I love that Borders. Perfect place to use the bathroom after you've tried at all the other stores on Michigan. ;-) Or just go across the street to Water Tower, but they're only on a few floors.  Nigella Lawson signs copies of her latest book Nigella Express: 130 Recipes for Good Food, Fast (Hyperion, $35) during a 3 p.m. tea Nov. 14 at the Ritz-Carlton Chicago, 160 E. Pearson. The cost is $75, which includes a copy of the book. For reservations, call (312) 573-5011.
Nigella doesn't mess around. She makes you get a reservation AND pay $75 bucks just to get a book signed!

Rep Power: 10 | I had heard her husband was ill, a severe battle with cancer I think. Some interesting stories about that on the internet.  | |

Rep Power: 2 | Yep...just read that...again, sad. She has a new beau, though. All kidding aside, I wish her a LONG life, and happiness...
She is a true GEM.

Rep Power: 10 | Yes maybe this time it will be the one she grows old with, hopefully with many happy years free of that kind of sadness. | |

Rep Power: 10 | I thought she got married to someone else after her husband passed away. They had a story on about her not long ago and showed her with her sick husband. It was very touching and sad. What strength she has.

Rep Power: 10 | There are some stories out there that she was seeing someone else while he was sick ... but it was with her husband's permission. I don't think that's something I could do, but I guess that is up to them. | |
