...seven-hour lunch for 600? Why not, when you're legendary restaurateur ALICE WATERS, 57, of Chez Panisse in Berkeley, Calif., and celebrating your 30th anniversary in business. Waters revolutionized the American way of eating with her emphasis on fresh, organically grown produce and unfussily prepared meat and fish with a Cali-Tuscan twist. If not for Waters, we'd still be wandering in that culinary wilderness between Salisbury steak TV dinners and French foo-foo food smothered in cream. Waters' anniversary meal cost $500 a head and featured lamb, spit roasted over oak and cherrywood fires, served with sauteed...
...battered mom and her wary, angry kids take refuge in a Stockholm commune, mismanaged by her sweetly passive brother. The time is the early '70s, and some of the hippies are, perhaps, secretly yearning for red meat, TV and conventional structures. Still, they have some useful things to teach their visitors about free-form domesticity. And some equally useful things to learn about traditional virtue. We, meanwhile, are free to adore a sad, funny, always good-natured film that eccentrically, tolerantly explores that moment when revolutionary ardor commingled with bourgeois stolidity to form our present weirdly ambiguous culture...
...white-owned farmland for black resettlement. Nine white farmers have died in the accompanying violence. Scores of black farm workers have been injured, and thousands more have been driven from the land by militant squatters. Zimbabwe's Commercial Farmers' Union says supplies of maize, wheat, tobacco, coffee, meat and dairy products have fallen by 20% to 50%, and farmers are liquidating their herds. Even Zimbabwe's protected wild life is being slaughtered as game farms and private reserves are invaded. The mobs have marched on retail stores, mines and factories. If that weren't bad enough for the economy, foot...
...Democrats will be out to create another choice, not between pork and missile defense (in the budgetary sense, nobody?s for the other white meat) but between items on Bush?s list - say, missile defense and the tax cut - that, since they can no longer repeal with a veto in the White House, they can at least complain shrilly about. And of course both sides will be accusing the other?s lock-box-raiders of "neglecting our nation?s seniors." Which neither side is actually doing - Social Security payouts are safe for at least a decade...
...place six or seven times. My son gets excited when he hears her coming up the stairs. When he wants to dance, he knows she's going to put De La Soul's hip-hop in the CD player. She lets him eat strawberries before he finishes his meat. She makes his stuffed animals talk like the cast of The Sopranos. Life is better with a Mimi in your life--for the parents as well as the child. When we need a baby sitter or just a break from chasing an active toddler, Mary is right there to take...
