James Madison was the fourth President of the United States from 1809 to 1817 who he is known as the "Father of the Constitution" due to his crucial involvement with the putting together of the United States Constitution as well as the Bill of Rights. He was a member of the Virginia House of Delegates and the Continental Progress in the times of the American Revolution. He contributed to the production of The Federalist Papers and later alongside Thomas Jefferson he organized the Democratic-Republican Party.
Madison was concerned with social physics and was a student of John Witherspoon. He was also interested in the political ideas of Charles Montesquieu that dealt with theories of human behavior influenced by certain works of Isaac Newton. The works of Newton in question refer to the logic of Newtonian mechanics and the three laws of motion. A government which is based on this kind of logic is called a Newtonian government. Therefore, this played a role in Madison's contribution to the framing of the US Constitution.
Chefs made their way into celebrity land a while ago. But how many celebrities that weren’t trained as professional cooks are actually whizzes in the kitchen? Here are several that come to mind.
Actress Julia Roberts is confident about her cooking skills. “I’m quite a good cook,” she told E! News. “I’m like a closet home ec teacher…I can really cook anything.” Roberts has said she often cooks fish for herself and her kids. And speaking of her three children, “They think that I’m a good cook,” Roberts told People. “They actually told me that I should open a restaurant.” She also relishes cooking for the holidays, particularly shredded Brussel sprouts. Roberts hasn’t published a cookbook, but we did find recipes attributed to her for peach crisp and banana hemp muffins. Or you can make the same summer salad the actress supposedly eats.
Chrissy Teigen started off as a supermodel. Then her love of cooking filtered into her professional life too. At this point, she’s created recipes for a limited Blue Apron release and also just launched her own home and cooking line at Target named “Cravings,” after the two cookbooks she’s released. Teigen describes cooking as “a time of peace” for herself. So maybe peace out to her tuna melt sandwich or the fried chicken wings that are a favorite of her husband, John Legend.
Lady Gaga, whose real name is Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta, comes from a cooking Italian family. Her father started his own restaurant in New York and also published a cookbook. And apparently, Lady Gaga has inherited the family’s cooking genes. Her Instagram account occasionally features photos of her culinary activities. Sure, sometimes it’s topless cooking. But other times it’s more poignant like in the post she shared about her bringing food to the family of her dear friend who passed away. Want to try a Gaga/Germanotta family favorite? Check out her recipe for whole wheat pasta with a sweet fennel sauce.
