Food, Good; Children, Bad

There has been a lot of fuss about French Women Don't Get Fat, a diet book that basically says eat whatever, just don't eat so much of it.

The Times has an article about the author and the book. Normally, we wouldn't care about things like this except for this quote pertaining to Americans who's response often is 'I don't have enough time to eat healthy':

"People say they are busy with three young kids," said Ms. Guiliano, who does not have children. "Well, there are choices to be made. Maybe you can't watch your reality show for 20 minutes."

This axiom holds true unless you watch MTV's Sweet 16, in which case you will opt out of parenthood and have plenty of time for yourself.

-- Oh la-di-da ... let her and the rest of those French women eat cake.

Probably never, I'm afraid. I'm 'afraid of spam.'
