Last night I attended a discussion with author Ruth Reichl and Chef Barbara Lynch discussing Reichl's first work of fiction Delicious! and a variety of other topics including the James Beard Awards, women's role in the industry, and the media's changing relationship with food. All of the audience, myself included, was completely absorbed with these two funny, honest, and successful women and I can't wait to read the book in its entirety. I'm about thirty pages in and am already in love.
