I'm a twenty something chefwife married to a twenty something chef. I set up this blog as a place for wives, girlfriends, significant others, and anyone else stuck to a chef to come together and chirp to each other about how to deal with the nonsense that goes along with being the wife of a chef. I was struggling to live with a ghost of a husband who I never saw.I met two other chef wives that literally saved me. It was with that, that I realized there must be more who need love and support too, right? -Hilary Battes, First Lady Desperate Chefs'Wives

Matsugen Opening Night

I love my chef!

He got chefwife J and I a table at Matsugen tomorrow night! I am so excited. I've been hearing all these things about this place and it has finally opened. JGM closed 66 a while back and it is now being reopened as Matsugen: an authentic Japanese eatery with hand cut soba noodles. I'll be sure to give updates on the evening sometime on Sunday. Jean Georges is flying in early from the Food and Wine Classic in Aspen to be there opening night. I hope I see him. He's my Alsatian heartthrob.

In other news, Eater didn't appreciate my lookalike photos. Screw them. I'm so annoyed too, because I thought mine were wicked good. Oh well.

I am annoyed with Eater on your behalf, too. You should have gotten bonus points for actually being the lookalike - which was the point of the contest, I think. It turned into a "Who Can Google Better?" kind of contest.

Yeah what the who? I worked so hard on mine! I would post the picture but the blog and public and my life is not. The image of teachers is already tattered by the far less than moral teachers out there today. I better keep it PG here.

Yeah, you're probably right about the pic....
Here's to you and ALL the teacher's that make GOOD choices!
