Wednesday

I haven't been cooking much this week - more warm-ups, than actual cooking-cooking. I've been busy with ........stuff. (I started running again and I'm exhausted).

I have, however, been watching some Food Network. Here are some observations:

*I don't get the appeal of Emeril, he is arrogant and his jokes are not funny. (I'm sure he's probably a nice man - I felt guilty when I re-read this entry).

*I do get the appeal of Bobby Flay. I wsh I could sit in that rooftop garden and sip something cool while I watch him grill. I'm a big fan of freckles.

*I love the cooking competitions. They are very inventive and exciting - anything could happen.

*I would like to see Adam win The Next Food Network Star. He's the most entertaining of the bunch.

*The various cooking show hosts overuse the word "literally." If you are teaching someone to cook, of course they are going to "literally" be doing the action. It's not going to get done if no literal action is taken.

Tomorrow I'm going to do some cooking-cooking, so I've got something to write about. See you then.

I'm so sorry that I missed this comment! It's probably too late to say thank you, but even so, thank you.

I do love the Food Network. I think it's my favorite channel.

I have a big crush on Jamie Oliver. He's lovely.
