Rachael Ray Roundup

[Everything Rachael Ray Feed]

That National Enquirer article about Rachael Ray must have made everyone think about her this week, because there were tons of blog posts about Rachael Ray out there! I guess now I understand why they say there's no such thing as bad press. And, luckily it also has a happy ending, since Rachael Ray herself (as noted in one of the links below) has confirmed that there's no divorce going on.

Here are the Rachael Ray posts from around the blogosphere this week. If you see a post that you think would be good for the Roundup, or you write one yourself, e-mail me so I can be sure to include it.
