By Nancy Nichols |

I interrupt this food blog to bring you some breaking news from the you-can’t-make-this-stuff-up department. Sometimes the mass of press releases that land in my inbox just give me tired head. This is one I thought you would like to see. I mean, seriously? Billy Joel is now headlining divorce support groups? Anyone with a private jet want to take me up tomorrow? Money quote: “Divorce Parties are a multi-million dollar business today.”
(Who can find the giant typo? Go, Kirk.)
