The nice people at Sur La Table where in charge of taking photos of AB talking with his adoring public. This was one of mine:
At first, I couldn't figure out what was on Alton's ears. Then it clicked, the logo on the window!
But the best was the man peering through the window watching. Those were the poor folks still waiting to get their chance to see AB.

I love that guy peeking in. I'd totally have done the same thing... face plastered to the window, staring... gazing longingly... um, what was I talking about? ;)
It's his little Good Eats halo :-)
@Lauren That guy reminds me of Wimpy in A Grind is a Terrible Thing to Waste. He's just checking to see if AB has any burgers lying around :-)
So does Alton say "Hi Lisa" when he sees you now?:)
@ Holly - No Hi Lisa. This time it was, Don't you get tired of coming to these things? And at the Smithsonian, maybe hi but I know I didn't get the Hi I'm Alton and the hand shake.
Has anyone who's attended this last handful of AB's lectures written down his 10 food rules to live by. I've heard mention of avoiding Chinese Chili, but nothing else. Got the whole list anybody?
Holy, when I get my butt in gear and write up the lecture... anyway I think I can remember them most of them:
* Chickens don't have fingers
* Soccer balls are not food
* Food tastes good
* Avoid Chinese chili
* Be grateful
* The brain is the most important cooking tool
* Eat pretty colors
* Grow something
* Don't eat like you're with a pack of wolves
That's 9
Can you explain a bit about Soccer balls are not food? I've read on other blogs about most of these, but not that one.
He was talking basically about setting priorities in family life. Instead of rushing the kiddos off to soccer games/practices spend time having dinner together and teaching them how to cook. Its more important that you teach children to be self sufficient (ie knowing how to cook) than playing soccer; thus you can't eat soccer balls.
