Food got Billy Joel, Katie Lee cooking
It wasn't music that got sparks flying between Billy Joel and Katie Lee.
"Food brought us together," Katie Lee Joel said on the red carpet at last week's Save the Music Foundation Gala.
And now she's getting ready to let people in on some of her culinary secrets. Joel said she just finished the photo shoot for her first cookbook, tentatively titled "Katie's Comfort Table," due out in May for Simon and Schuster.
Among the recipes are Billy's favorites: peach cobbler and meatloaf. (She adds that The Piano Man makes an excellent spaghetti bolognese and strip steak.)
Joel said they have just started renovations on their new house in Sagaponack and that they won't be able to move in for about a year. They'll continue to stay at the house in Sag Harbor in the meantime when they're out east.
Joel said she and Billy work well together. "I think we complement each other," she said.
"Obviously, there's a big age difference," she said, laughing. "But he's very immature and I'm very mature, so we meet in the middle."

I like Katie Lee. I saw her recently on Paula Deen's Food Network late-evening(9 Eastern)series "Paula's Party," and they worked well together.
i went to high school with katie, and all i remember her ever eating was carrot sticks. She was a vegetarian and wouldnt eat because she wanted to do modeling. It seems really strange to me that she would now be able to produce a cook book...i think the marriage is kinda creepy, but more power to her for finally being able to eat what she likes.
