Thanks! They're among my faves that motivate me. I used to switch them up regularly... I should start doing that again. I tried adding one recently and the forum wouldn't let me because I ran over 500 characters. :P

I found out I was a foodie - tho I didn't know the term - back when I was a teenager. I fell in love with with Graham Kerr & learned how to really cook. Was I the only teenager to rush home from school to watch his show?

That's the context I've always used "foodie", too. Seeing as she's wealthy enough for private chefs and any ingredients she wants, I'd agree she's "not a foodie" if she prefers fairly simple meals and doesn't care to chit chat about food. Me, I'd probably be fat and diabetic (or dead by now) because I'd be like, "go demand the chicken pasanda recipe from Taste of India restaurant! And I want onion bhaji with it!"
I remember watching some Graham Kerr, but I don't remember much about the show. I remember watching a Canadian show called The Urban Peasant. The host's name was James Barber. I couldn't remember his name, and noticed this tidbit about him on the wikipedia page:
Quote:
Perhaps fittingly, Barber died peacefully on 29 November 2007, at his farm of natural causes while sitting at the dining room table reading a cookbook with a pot of chicken soup simmering on the stove.[1] He was 84 years old and is survived by his wife and five children.

What a beauty. I wouldn't mind going like that.
