If I were so inspired, I would do some research on the number of cooking shows on Tee Vee.  I might also find out how many cook books were given as gifts; maybe I’d figure out the most popular cooking web sites on the internet and reach some conclusions about America’s passive interest in cooking.  I did put “celebrity kitchens” into a search engine and found some pictures which did not warm my heart or inspire me to put on a pot of coffee.

If the idea of cooking is so popular, why is the line at my local McDonald’s drive-through always so busy?

Here’s one of my favorite “celebrity” kitchens.

A lot of real food has been cooked here and much of it has been shared with others.  There’s no drive-through but if you’re friends with the “celebrity” chef, she might deliver some food to you.  You might even get invited over for a cup of coffee, a homemade donut, and some conversation.

No autographs, please.
