Recently I had the pleasure of talking to the producers over at E! about “Hollywood Baby Bling” (meaning, all the fab stuff expecting celebrity parents do these days to prep for the arrivals of their bundles of joy).

FAST FOOD. Honey mustard chicken.
Despite that I really do love to cook, I DESPISE the ongoing “what’s for dinner” dilemma. This is my latest and most favorite chicken recipe by far. It’s fast, delicious, easy and cheap. INGREDIENTS: Equal parts honey, mustard (can be yellow or dijon — half a cup of each usually yields enough for 4-5 chicken…
FAMOUS. Battling baby bumps: Why do we care?
