What I really want to see is a Food Network Catfight between Giada De Laurentiis and Rachel Ray. Guess I'll have to wait for another day. Mommy Giada covers Redbook magazine and talked a little about her reported fighting with Rachel Ray.

"Do we hang out all the time? No," Giada says. "Are we best friends? No. But if you’re not best friends, people assume that you hate each other. We laugh about it. We do these festivals together, and she’ll say to me, ‘Oh, we’d better take a picture together and smile, because if we don’t, God only knows what’s going to get written about us.’ She’s a lovely person."

Giada also talks a bit about her daughter Jade, now 1. She's not a fussy eater, Giada says. "She loves grilled lamb chops and eats quinoa." Quinoa? What the hell is quinoa? Getting children to eat healthy food is important, she says. "You have to make food fun."

As for being "too sexy" for a cooking show, Giada says, "I think it’s okay to cook and be sexy. Why not? I do get a lot of emails from women, saying to me, ‘You don’t have to show cleavage to get the male audience.’ I don’t need to. That’s just how my body type is, and I’m very comfortable with what I have."

You naysaying women can shut your mouths. I'm very comfortable with what Giada has, too.
