'The Rise of the Kitchen Bitch'
"When did a certain group of men take over the womanly art of home cooking? And why can't we who are married to them just sit back and call their conquest of the kitchen a feminist triumph?

"I could never understand why people add water to their eggs. I generally add 2% milk or higher percentage milkfat, or even sour cream. But the water makes no sense to me.
