The Best Movie Ever Made--a.k.a. "Ratatouille"--touched on several issues the culinary world faces, one of which was women in the kitchen, via Colette. I'm really enraged by the disrespect females are forced to endure; this enforces my belief that gender equality is far from established. Kate in the upcoming "No Reservations" speaks truth when she says, "I've worked hard to get here" (although I'm more used to Catherine Zeta-Jones in roles such as the ravishing partner in crime of Zorro), and women certainly work hard to climb the kitchen ladder. In all honesty, though, I would prefer women than men alongside me any day. Here's a good article on this topic.

ELIZABETH FALKNER'S DEMOLITION DESSERTS
With fun illustrations by her younger brother spanning the pages, Chef Liz Falkner's book is a joy to read and cook from. The recipes start off simple, with Falkner offering what she deems the perfect chocolate chip cookie (who doesn't want one of those?), slowly transforming into creations as complex as those served in her restaurant-bakery in San Francisco.
