Rachel Ray to be immortalized nude in paprika and oils

Rachel Ray to be immortalized....

Rachel Ray to be immortalized....

One of my favorite foodie publications is “Grub Street“  the foodie column/blog at New York Magazine. They made my otherwise stressed out afternoon with this headline that I could nor resist posting

• Artist Alex Gardega is planning to paint a nude portrait of Rachael Ray using paprika and oils. Gardega finds Ray “charming and sexy.”

God Bless America!

But really… if you have to immortalize a nude foodie in “oils and paprika,”  I’d start with Nigella, Padma and Giada and definitely use some Cayenne…or maybe curry powder

NOTE: Karen… I am sooo sorry I bumped your awesome post on “Cooking for One” with this crap… but it’s a foodie culture thing… I couldn’t pass on it.
