Aries (March 21 - April 19) There's no sense being a whiz in the kitchen without showing it off. Plan a dinner party for some of your closest friends, and go to town. Skip the formalities and whip up an Italian feast where everyone can just dig in. Don't forget the red wine. Food and friendship, now that's amore!
Taurus (April 20 - May 20) Unpredictable mood swings will qualify you as a member of the Capsicum family of peppers today. One moment you'll be a friendly red bell pepper, sweet and inviting. But the next, you'll flare into an aggressive and intimidating habanera. Either way, your moods will make today one lively enchilada.
Gemini (May 21 - June 21) There may be too many cooks in your kitchen, and it may be time to get all Gordon Ramsey on them. Take steps to simplify your life today. It doesn't always have to be a Thanksgiving feast; sometimes mac and cheese is just fine. Boiling things down to the essence will be tastier in the long run.
Cancer (June 22 - July 22) Your pilot light may have gone dim, so the oven isn't roaring at full capacity today. Making matter worse on this lukewarm day will be that your brain will feel like a bowl of oatmeal. Toss in some raisins and honey and enjoy the meal. It could be as good as it gets today.
Leo (July 23 - August 22) You may find out the hard way today that even the freshest looking of apples can be rotten to the core. Perhaps you need to be more discerning about what you put in your shopping basket. Picking the freshest produce and being choosy could keep you from getting tomato thrown in your face -- again.
Virgo (August 23 - September 22) Your tenuous relationships with other people could become as dramatic as an episode of 'Top Chef.' Be careful how you stir the pot today; things could really come to a boil. It may be best to sequester yourself in the pantry, and wait until this latest tempest in the teapot blows over.
Libra (September 23 - October 22) Stay true to what you do best today. Fiddling with life recipes won't lead to anything tastier than what you already have. And venturing into the unknown could result in another case of botulism. Stick with what you know today.
Scorpio (October 23 - November 21) In your fantasies you host two or three Food Network shows, your own mag, your face on every snack box in every supermarket in the world, and, of course, a syndicated talk show. Ah, but here comes reality again, and it bears a peanut butter sandwich. Sigh.
Sagittarius (November 22 - December 21) By midmorning you'll feel beat, like you just can't get the ovens roaring. That's what you get for skipping breakfast again. It's true that breakfast is the most important meal of the day. Without it you're body has nothing to burn, and getting through the day will be like trying to cook without fire.
Capricorn (December 22 - January 19) Hit a sports bar with friends for an after work round of pool and hearty pub grub. Save the calorie counting for tomorrow, for tonight it's nachos, buffalo wings, fish and chips and anything else that's smothered in melted cheddar cheese and ranch dressing.
Aquarius (January 20 - February 18) Work could be a downer today, but you can brighten things by preparing a hearty meal afterwards. A home-cooked supper will remind you that simple pleasures are the best, and your spirits could lift. Consider it a Happy Meal, only without the 5000 calories and a Harry Potter action figure.
Pisces (February 19 - March 20) You may receive some good news today, so celebrate when you get home. Crack open that nice bottle of cabernet you've been saving, slice some finely aged super sharp cheddar or pull out that special box of chocolates. Even the simplest of ingredients can turn a low-key celebration into a big night.
