The fourth annual D’Artagnan Duckathon, which took place at Chelsea Market (in nyc) yesterday, is covered in a great slideshow by Gourmet.

Plagiarism is in the front of the public consciousness these days, in the age of “change you can Xerox.” I’m not going to claim that Mark Bittman stole my idea for his blog (which, generally, is totally awesome), but a paranoiac might find the timing here a little too convenient when Bittman posts about homemade [...]
