Here, Mrs. Obama, let me take those enormous fennels off your hands and bring you a cold drink? Ice tea? Lemonade? Or would you prefer a beer?

Nice looking fennel! Glad she had so many smart chefs around. I get heartbroken watching fennel get ignored at my farmers market.

This may well be the first time I've seen a First Lady work up a sweat.

Also, hot chef alert. I see you lurking, Sam Kass.

Horses sweat, men perspire, but First Ladies merely glow.

I love that bottom picture. I hope Mrs Obama didn't feel too swamped by all the child-love, because that little girl hugging the CRAP out of her is SO. HAPPY.
I hope she grows up to be a huge success and always remembers hugging an awesome sweaty FLOTUS!
