Oh boy, do we have a bushel of questions for America's Test Kitchen host Christopher Kimball. Like: who do you like better, Bridget Lancaster or Julia Collin-Davison? (We cannot decide!) What's the deal with the whole Vermont thing? Do you hate Good Eats since you both more or less do similar things? Why are you wasting our time with the equipment corner? And, why do you fumble on the taste-test challenge? You seem actually peeved when you pick the wrong one. Which you do. Often. And that tickles us.

You can meet Kimball on October 22 at Omnivore Books (3885 Cesar Chavez) when he celebrate 20 years of Cook's Illustrated magazine and the publication of The Cook's Illustrated Cookbook. (We highly recommend subscribing to Cook's Illustrated if you haven't done so already. Gorgeous publication, people.)
