A prior post had me thinking of books. I have been given a copy of chef Tiberio Simone's lates creation,
La Figa: Visions of Food and Form, in preparation for an upcoming interview. Take a look at it on Amazon.com. It is breathtaking and one of the most stunningly beautiful picture books I've ever seen. It is pure orgasmic the way he penetrates the sensuality of the human body through the sexuality of food. There are stories and recipes, but the photographs, the photographs.... I dedicate it and all my impure thoughts to every man on the Forum, even you, Alan. Perhaps especially you, Alan. Loosen up!
