Rachael Ray Helps Out Ohio Soup Kitchen
In order to help out a depressed Wilmington soup kitchen, Rachael Ray provided the organization with new appliances, shelves, furniture and has promised food for a YEAR!
The soup kitchen is now getting as many customers in a day as it did in a week a year ago due to the departure of DHL Express and other Wilmington Air Park operations. Currently, the unemployment rate is at 15% and Rachael wanted to step in and provide a helping hand.
The entire event was filmed and due to air on November 25th on 'The Rachael Ray Show'.
On Sunday, the Food Network star hosted an early Thanksgiving feast for the community. The soup kitchen improvements and the Thanksgiving meal are scheduled to be featured on "The Rachael Ray Show" on Nov. 25.
What a great thing to do!

Rachael Ray Plans A Free Thanksgiving Dinner
I know today is Halloween, but Rachael Ray is already looking ahead to Thanksgiving, and for this event, she definitely needs to plan ahead. Rachael is offering a free turkey dinner on November 8 to anyone who lives in Wilmington, Ohio.
The Rachael Ray Show’s got you covered. We can’t fix the economy, but we can do our part - and what we know about is food. So if you’re worried about a Thanksgiving meal, you can relax - we’ve got a plan.
We’re inviting residents of Wilmington, OH, who are facing economic hardship, to have a Thanksgiving dinner on us. The dinner will be held in town on Nov. 8, 2009.
The city has lost thousands of jobs since their major employer, DHL Express, moved out of the city.
Now that's the holiday spirit.

Nick Lachey Visits Rachael Ray
Are you still wondering where the summer went? I am. But fall is moving into full swing, which means all the shows are starting new seasons. 'The Rachael Ray Show' is no exception, and Rachael is having Nick Lachey as one of her guests.
Here's what Nick had to say about the rumors of a reconciliation between Jessica Simpson and himself:
"When I read they (Jessica & Tony) split up, in my head I said here it comes. I just split up with Vanessa. The timing was just too perfect to resist."
"Right now single life is good, especially in New York."
I guess he and Vanessa Minnillo aren't back together. I thought they were! Maybe they're keeping things quiet for now.
Would Nick do another reality TV show?
"I definitely would… you know I’m not gonna say I wouldn't do reality TV again. I wouldn't do reality TV in my home in my marriage as the focus."
And while he may not be reuniting with Jessica, would he consider a reunion with his old group, 98 Degrees?
"98 degrees, that is one reunion that might actually happen at some point."
You can watch Nick's entire interview this Friday, September 18.

Anyone Up For A Game Of Tennis?
David Letterman had a handful of fun guests yesterday afternoon while taping for his late night show - Andy Roddick and Rachael Ray. Looks like Andy's love for tennis rubbed off as the two TV personalities took to the court (you know - the street) and showed off their love for the game.
What fun!
Rachael switched out of her red gown and into tennis gear and tried her hardest to keep up with the pro. Here she is being the ball girl for the men's match.
I wonder if Andy let David win?

Rachael Ray Has Vocal Surgery
No more rasp? What do you mean? I've gotten so used to hearing Rachael Ray talk with a sore throat sound, that I can't imagine her any other way.
The cook's vocal cord have been corrected and she is healing nicely according to her rep.
"After several months of vocal therapy and on the advice of her
doctors, Rachael decided to decided to have a benign cyst removed from
her vocal cord," says Charlie Dougiello. "According to Rachael's
doctors the minor, non-invasive procedure was a success and she is
already resting at home."
She'll be back to screaming EVOO in no time! :)
Are Food Network Stars Giada De Laurentiis And Rachael Ray Feuding?
"Feud" may be too strong of a word. Yet chef Giada De Laurentiis admits that she and Rachael Ray aren't exactly the best of friends.
'Do we hang out all the time? No. Are we best friends? No,' De Laurentiis tells the June issue of Redbook.
'But if you're not best friends, people assume you hate each other,' continues De Laurentiis, who hosts a new show Giada at Home.
'We laugh about it,' De Laurentiis says. 'We do these festivals
together, and she'll say to me, 'Oh, we'd better take a picture
together and smile, because if we don't, God only knows what's going to
get written about us.' She's a lovely person.' "
I'm glad to hear this because I love them both! Rachael is fantastic for good everyday recipes, and if you ever want to do something fancier, than Giada's recipes are the best.
I wondered if this was over the 'Iron Chef' defeat Giada suffered when she and Rachael competed against each other, but I thought Giada was a bigger person than that ;)
