...hasn't cooked a meal in 25 years by her own admission. (Her husband does all the cooking and baking. He's a law professor, too). She is the cutest, toughest judge with the most gravitas that I've ever met. She came to speak at KU law today, and also spoke to our lawyering class. I wanted to ask her, as such a tiny person, how she manages to project her presence. (But i was kind of embarrassed to ask that when others were asking educated questions about supreme court decisions). She did tell some terrific stories about discrimination she experienced as a female lawyer in the '60's and '70's. And Columbia University stories, which made me nostalgic. I admit it. I'm a Ruth Bader Ginsburg fangirl. She is sooooo cooool! Definitely would like to be as cool as she is in 50 years.
