Rachel Sklar goes bigtime

Rachel Sklar, formerly of FishbowlNY and now of the blog Tomatoes Are Delicious, just sold a book (via Publisher's Marketplace:

NON-FICTION: HUMOR
Huffington Post contributor (and former Fishbowl blogger) Rachel Sklar's JEW-ISH, a guide to understanding the difference between a shiksa and a latke, and why there are so many ways to spell Chanukah, pitched as something like AMERICA: THE BOOK, except about Jews, and what it takes to be a good one, or a good-ish one (now go call your mother!), to Matthew Benjamin at Collins, by Kate Lee at ICM (world English).

She's also blogging about Senator Bill Napoli and abortion at The Huffington Post.
