Apparently all the kvetching about the Food Network having morphed into a reality-competition-glitz-fest was heard loud and clear by its parent company, Scripps. Either that or it’s just crystal clear that food and cooking are cash cows. Scripps has  announced that it will turn its Fine Living network into the Cooking Channel in 2010 so that it can appropriately move away from the high life and into the real life with honest to goodness cooking instruction – that which many say has been absent from the Food Network for some time. I can only imagine the confusion at the water cooler: “Wait, you saw it on the cooking channel or the food channel?”  But it’s probably a good thing, as Martha would say.
