But yes, Satanic Verses is probably his best known work and is wonderful. Midnight's Children is fabulous as well, albeit more tragic. The other famous work of his is Fury, though I have not read it and thus cannot comment.

]]> <![CDATA[Another Piping-Hot Serving Of Padma Lakshmi]]> @LollyPops: BJ's Diary reference doesn't help either. Am I just too young for this? I was barely born in the last century so maybe that's the case. I'd like to think that I am otherwise far from ignorant. As a side note, in my search for Rushdie knowledge, people have only been able to tell me that he's "one of the greatest writers" and when I ask why I get blank stares. You've been more helpful than most. Is "Satanic Verses" one of his most important works?

]]> <![CDATA[Another Piping-Hot Serving Of Padma Lakshmi]]> @marimari: "Salman Rushwho"?!?! Are you fucking kidding me?! Surely, you meant Salman Rushdie, one of the greatest writers of the latter part of the twentieth century? Target of a fatwah issued by Iranian ayatollahs on the basis of his brilliant and funny "Satanic Verses"? Wow... People are awfully comfortable with their ignorance these days. Oh, wait: he was referenced and had a cameo in Bridget Jones' Diary. Perhaps that would ring a bell?

]]> <![CDATA[Another Piping-Hot Serving Of Padma Lakshmi]]> @exiled: actually she's written a few cookbooks.. so i would venture to say she probably knows something. although not nearly as well versed as my dear tom collichio.

i looooove her. she has a huge scar and refuses to cover it up and was a model and is smart and fabulous.and hot. girl crush.

jenalicious

]]> <![CDATA[Another Piping-Hot Serving Of Padma Lakshmi]]> @ineffable.me: She actually was a successful model, and hosted a cooking show on the Food Network. I'm not sure when it aired, but she was only married to Rushdie in 2004, so I'm not sure whether it was before or after that. And her first cookbook won a "Best First Book" from the...what is it, something like Gourmand Cookbook Awards or something. I don't doubt that her profile was raised being married to another famous person, but she seems to have decent culinary cred (and the reviews I've read of her new book have been pretty good).

marimari

]]> <![CDATA[Another Piping-Hot Serving Of Padma Lakshmi]]> My roommate and I enjoy watching Top Chef and listening to Padma pretend to know something about food. Mainly she just nods sagely or listens to the contestants with an empathetic expression. But whenever she does venture an opinion, the real chefs at the table are all like, "Actually, no" and she gets schooled.

exiled

]]> <![CDATA[Another Piping-Hot Serving Of Padma Lakshmi]]> @ineffable.me: agree, i didn't even know who she was when she popped up on Top Chef Season 2, replacing the girl I later learned was Billy Joel's wife. And I'm still confused as to why it matters that she was married to Salman Rushwho? Am I missing something?

marimari

]]> <![CDATA[Another Piping-Hot Serving Of Padma Lakshmi]]> Horrible outfit, boring tv personality. Padma is a pretty lady but she needs to gain twenty pounds. She looks hungry!

It's Richmond (Italian brand not sold in the US) and is actually incredibly flattering and slim-fitting. So don't be hatin' on the Padma coat. It's totes big-nite-out-worthy.

Darth Funk

]]> <![CDATA[Another Piping-Hot Serving Of Padma Lakshmi]]> Even I, a plump Midwestern dowager, know that regular Lycra® becomes unbecomingly shiny when stretched. Which is why the good people at INVISTA developed Black Lycra® some two years ago.

Not that Black Lycra® would fix everything else that's wrong with that outfit. But it's a start.

Joy_Rebar

]]> <![CDATA[Another Piping-Hot Serving Of Padma Lakshmi]]> @wildflowerpower: Ugh, agreed on the tights issue. I bought some black tights the day before I intended to wear them - looked fin in the store. The next day, I'm getting dressed and surprise! I've got shiny legs. Screw that. I wear them exclusively on cold days, under pants.

]]> <![CDATA[Another Piping-Hot Serving Of Padma Lakshmi]]> @ineffable.me: We were trying to play on the food aspect of Salman's name - like the fish - to explain how she might have got the role on top chef.

wildflowerpower

]]> <![CDATA[Another Piping-Hot Serving Of Padma Lakshmi]]> WTF? Usually, she's a pretty good dresser. Although, in her defense, she's, like, outside the post office and it looks cold.

Also, boots? Want want want want.

]]> <![CDATA[Another Piping-Hot Serving Of Padma Lakshmi]]> @hamburgerhotdog: Point. I have that coat, and pretty much wear it to the gym or sporting events. It's not so good when I make red carpet appearances or wear shoes that cost more than I make in a week.

wildflowerpower

]]> <![CDATA[Another Piping-Hot Serving Of Padma Lakshmi]]> @marimari: yeah i know she's the host of top chef, but i always think that she only got that job because of whoever she was married to before. i dont know, i never understood the big deal with her really.

ineffable.me

]]> <![CDATA[Another Piping-Hot Serving Of Padma Lakshmi]]> Okay, huge pet peeve: it's cold and all and even though you are gorgeous and famous, you too get cold. But why why why would you put on some crap-ass puffy jacket over a tiny dress? You don't own one nice wool coat? Lady, it's not like you took the subway and are walking home.

]]> <![CDATA[Another Piping-Hot Serving Of Padma Lakshmi]]> @stacyinbean: I just always thought they were the cheap/economical tights you could get at M&S or whatever. The problem is that they look matte until you put them on...even the hand test doesn't work!

@wildflowerpower: @hamburgerhotdog: I don't even know where you can FIND shiny tights like that. Am I the only wacko that has to stick my hand through them to determine exactly what they'll look like on my legs?!

DebbieGlibson

]]> <![CDATA[Another Piping-Hot Serving Of Padma Lakshmi]]> For the love of god, can we please move away from opaque tights that shine ever so slightly? Padma proves that they can look good on no one.

They are running riot here in London and I would like them to just go away now.

]]> <![CDATA[Another Piping-Hot Serving Of Padma Lakshmi]]> she may be a lovely woman, but something about the outfit bothers me. i can't tell if it's a skirt or shorts, but either way - they're pleated and look like some satiny silky thing. not a fan.
