How Cute is This?

A seven-year old girl is getting her dream to meet Rachael Ray fulfilled by the Children's Dream Fund. According to this column in the St. Petersburg Times, Ellie Edwards, who has been fighting leukemia for the last three years, will get to meet Rachael, visit her set, appear on the Today show and have several outings around New York City.

For Ellie, however, the highlight will be meeting Ray, who hosts two shows on the Food Network and has a series of books.

"On a scale of 1 to 10, it's over a 10," Ellie said, while clutching one of Ray's books. "I like her because she's always happy. She's never sad or mad. Once she starts cooking, she never gets tired and stops."

What a heartwarming story for a Monday. I am glad to hear that Rachael Ray is giving back to her fans.
