Here at the Cod, sometimes there is griping about restaurants I've never been to. (Alinea, whoot!), and sometimes there is Asbergerian attention to fairly arcane food related linguistic issues. Occasionally actual there is cooking stuff, itself occasionally lucid. But it can't all be chin-stroking mediations on Michelin in America, or agonized considerations of Bruni's forays below 14th. First and foremost, The Gurgling Cod is about giving, and a rare opportunity has emerged to help one of our sisters in the culinary arts:
First, she took daytime television by storm with her highly rated new talk show, now RACHAEL RAY has joined forces with Epic Records to introduce viewers to one of her passions outside the kitchen -- music! The label has announced that it will release a series of soundtracks with songs handpicked by Ray.
"I'm thrilled to partner with Epic ... Epic is iconic!" Rachael says. "We've created soundtracks that I would listen to or play at a party, starting off with my picks for Christmas and a funky mix for kids. I start singing holiday songs on Thanksgiving weekend -- that's when my tree goes up as well -- and, the kids' CD is filled with music that both kids and parents might enjoy."*
I am challenging the readers of The Gurgling Cod to help Rachael -- heaven knows, she has a lot on her plate. So, please help our favorite cook/publisher/talk show host, and give her some ideas for songs she could put on her compilations. Use the comments for your suggestions, and I'll use my media contacts to make sure they get passed along to RR personally!
*Thx, Grinder, for nothing.

Was that too easy? I mean...
