Angelina Doesn't Cook

You know I'm always a fan of celebrities who don't pretend they can cook. My love for it is such that I will ignore the fact that Jamie Oliver is coming out with a new magazine with his name on it. Yeah, yeah we know it's you Jamie. Couldn't come up with something else? I guess it is so everyone in the world won't mistake his cooking magazine for one of the other million cooking magazines out there. He doesn't call it a cooking magazine though. Says it is not really about recipes. Uh huh. I think the first issue has about 100 recipes in it so he may want to rethink that talking point.

I mean why on earth would anyone really want to buy it? Do we want to know what Jamie thinks about the world? Is he going to give us a learned discourse on global economics each issue? He's a chef. It's going to be about cooking. Just because you can call a pal and have him talk about what meals he likes to cook doesn't make it anything other than a cooking magazine.

Anyway, in the first issue which comes out on Thursday, Jamie interviewed Brad Pitt. Jamie asked about Angelina Jolie and what the best meal was that she ever cooked Brad. According to Brad, the best thing she has ever made is cereal. Wow. Not even toast. Just a bowl of cereal out of a box. It's good to know the family is starting out with a healthy breakfast each morning though instead of the chicken and waffles I eat every morning. Sure, it makes me sleepy right up to the lunch hour, but there's nothing like grease and syrup to get your day started off with a bang.

For next month's issue, Jamie has an interview with Billy Bob Thornton where Billy Bob talks about the gourmet meals Angelina cooked for him. They never got around to dessert though because Angelina just couldn't keep her hands off him.
