My Rachael Ray Post

So on Saturday I was at the bookstore, and I picked up the new VK and a Rachael Ray 30-minute meals cookbook, "Express Lane Meals" or some such thing. I'm not accustomed to the staff at the bookstore commenting on what I buy -- even though I buy knitting magazines all the time, they never say "Do you knit?" or "Did you knit that sweater you're wearing right now?" But the cashier said to me, "Do you like Rachael Ray?" To which I responded "I've never seen her show, but I keep reading these reviews that say her recipes really work, and I really need some help..." Not that my cooking is bad or anything, I think others in my family might say it's just too infrequent. Big long pause. "I've seen her show," the cashier said finally. "I hear she's sort of annoying on TV, " I said. And the cashier blurted out, "She comes across sort of as if she doesn't know what she's talking about."
