Another RIP notice:
Cookbook author and television chef James Barber, who appeared on CBC-TV for 10 years as The Urban Peasant, has died.
"As far as we can tell, James was sitting at the dining room table, he was reading a cookbook, and he had a pot of soup simmering on the stove. So he definitely left this world in a way that he would have wanted to, but I think he would have been pretty upset about the timing,"
Geo - I know you won't care less, but this man took the spook out of the kitchen for me at an important time in my life. His approach of using what you had, and being willing to experiment was valuable beyond belief. Sound familiar Doc?

Couldn't stand him. He was making hummus once and said you could just substitute peanut butter for tahini -- blasphemous!
