    There was one I saw about a year ago.. it was always on early in the morning. It was this pretty lady who would always make me so relaxed with her descriptions. I wish I could remember her name. She was the Bob Ross of cooking though...

    it's the quirky nerdiness...
    The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.

    I really like Bobby Flay as a chef, just not so much of a TV personality. Sucks that he's on EVERY damn FoodNetwork program now! :lol:

    no doubt great chef... great at BBQ, But I seen him doing iron chef with Giada Vs. Rachael Ray and Mario Batali. He was a prick to Giada the whole show and ever since then haven't liked him. I pick up on his arrogance everytime I see him on TV. Cant watch him.

    Also loved that show, Heat Seakers- Aaron Sanchez and Roger Mooking ... went around challenging each other to eat spicy foods. very funny i thought but short lived show.
