Gwyneth Paltrow Writing Cook Book Titled 'My Father's Daughter'

Academy Award-winning actress Gwyneth Paltrow is branching out and using the buzz created from her controversial lifestyle newsletter to publish her first cookbook, My Father’s Daughter.

Gwyneth, 36, gets her love of cooking from her dad, Bruce Paltrow, who died of throat cancer in 2002.

“My dad was a famous pancake maker and I’m working on [adapting his] recipe right now,” says the actress. “I’m making mine slightly healthier.”

According to publishers Janklow & Nesbit, the family-centered book will focus on the importance of togetherness at mealtime.

My Father’s Daughter is slated for release in the Fall pf 2010.

I have two thoughts on this:

1) Since it is being promoted as a family “togetherness” cookbook, I sure hope her marriage to Chris Martin can hold out until the release date in 2010.

2) I think this could be a great success- who doesn’t wish they were slender like Gwyneth Paltrow… I smell a best-seller when it hits the shelves. Wonder if her buddy Mario Batali will appear anywhere in the book?!
