Yes, I know. It's been a week since the Los Angeles Times Festival of Books took over the UCLA campus and spewed all kinds of bookishness to the masses, but I have to say that it probably took me that long to recover from the crowds, controlled chaos, and crazy heat of the event.
I wasn't there for anything but the chef demonstrations on the Cooking Stage, and to be perfectly honest, I was really only there to see LA son Govind Armstrong (Table 8 restaurant) and my favorite Queer Guy, Ted Allen. However, I have to say that I was somewhat surprised by how much I enjoyed Cat Cora. Granted, I am always a sucker for a lady chef, especially one who can hold her own in Kitchen Stadium, but I didn't think I would be so taken with how cute she is, her charming accent, and the fact that she has personality without bubbling over into an annoying mess like some Food Network stars we know.
