Colleen McCullough died on 29 January. She was Australia's best selling author, a neurophysiologist, and for us, a cookbook author. She was boisterous, witty, and more accomplished than most. So it was quite shocking and in profoundly bad taste that The Australian began her obituary, not with her remarkable gifts, but by stating she was "plain" and "overweight." Screw them!
Take a few moments to read our Famous Food Friday on Colleen McCullough from several years ago.
