A few weeks ago I had the opportunity to meet Chef Giada de Laurentiis at her book signing in Chicago. If you have read past blogs of mine, you would know that I have an affinity for the culinary arts and an addiction to cook books. I have two other signed books from two of my other favorite chefs. This was to be the end of my cook book signings until I realized that Bobby Flay can really cook up a storm. So, the collection continues and I hope Bobby plans on stopping by the Windy City sometime soon. Above you'll see a few blurry pictures because no flash was allowed and below is a video of the people after me chatting with Giada. It was an awesome time waiting in line and she of course was very gracious and beautiful in person. She even said she liked my name. Oh yes, I almost forgot, all the old nonna's kept congratulating her on her 6 month old baby. It was funny!
