Why is it socially unacceptable to be insensitive to a fat person, and now okay to criticize a skinny person? I am very sensitive to my overweight friends, and deserve the same respect in return. You're not the only one teasing a skinny cook... I keep reading that line about not trusting a skinny candy maker over and over again in a cute cooking cozy mystery series that I otherwise love. I am thin and am tired of being shamed about it. I have an overweight friend who occasionally critically comments on my weight or what I eat, which I would NEVER do to her. I don't feel as close to her anymore because of it. I feel the same way about when people are racist about white people, men, Chrisitans, Southerners, or anyone else whom it is currently politically correct to insult as a group, instead of just talking about each individual as their own unique person. It is so hypocritical. We come in all shapes and sizes, and criticizing me shouldn't make you feel better about yourself. I love your blog, and hope you can see this in the spirit it is intended.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16517408.post-1159484857523502822006-09-28T19:07:00.000-04:002006-09-28T19:07:00.000-04:00A lot of the ones mentioned, I haven't heard of......A lot of the ones mentioned, I haven't heard of...

If I don't do that, I may do a crumb cake...there was a good strawberry one in cooking light and on SHF.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00454178191447024827noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16517408.post-1159452246607326402006-09-28T10:04:00.000-04:002006-09-28T10:04:00.000-04:00I can't stand Emeril.

I usually make Giada's recipe and it is simple and delicious.<BR/>Most of her recipes are really easy and delicious. <BR/><BR/>She is probably my favorite celeb chef. But I agree, the photo's are a bit much. She is gorgeous, but we don't need to see her photo on every page! HAHAHA<BR/><BR/>If you watched her earlier shows, she was very different. Turtlenecks, aprons and very serious.<BR/><BR/>Now all you see is cleavage and her pearly whites!! I think the network encouraged her to change in order to attract more viewers.<BR/><BR/>You know the saying "Sex Sells!"Anniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11259640913845569431noreply@blogger.com
