That anxiety has become a standard rite of passage for American parents. Beaver's family, with Ward Cleaver off to work in his suit and June in her apron in the kitchen, is a vanishing breed. Less than a fifth of American families now fit that model, down from a third 15 years ago. Today more than 60% of mothers with children under 14 are in the labor force. Even more striking: about half of American women are making the same painful decision as McPherson and returning to work before their child's first birthday. Most do so because they...

Doris and Murdean Gulsvig were dishing out the special, Swiss steak -- $3.10, not including beverage. The Gulsvigs man the kitchen three or four days a month, as do the other volunteers. The cafe is open Monday through Saturday, serving breakfast and lunch only. When their labors are done, Murdean was saying of Doris, "she goes home exhausted and lays on the davenport, and maybe fixes me some soup and goes to sleep. I mean it's a lot of work...

...turned the management over to Ken Aretsky and Anne Rosenzweig, the team behind Arcadia, a popular East Side boutique-restaurant celebrated for its new American cooking. Even more frightening to those accustomed to "21's" innocuous but soothing nursery dishes was the news that Rosenzweig, who would mastermind the kitchen, had chosen as her lieutenant Alain Sailhac, one of the best French chefs in the country, who had distinguished himself at Le Cirque.

...described as kitsch chinoiserie. There are lots of "Ah so"s and "Honorable sirs" and wavings of fans here, which in almost any other context would look offensively cliched but here fit in perfectly with Brecht's consciously artificial evocation of China. The odd thing about Serban's kitchen sink approach is that he seems to borrow almost as many Japanese conventions as Chinese, suggesting that Serban has been dealing his Orientalism from a rather shallow supply.
