    Everyone, what did you think of the NFNS outcome? It wasn't what I was expecting!
    Praying for peace in the Middle East, Ukraine, and around the world.

    I've been Boo'd ... right off the stage!

    Aaahh, I have been defrosted! Thank you, Bonny and Asiel!
    Brrrr, I've been Frosted! Thank you, Asiel and Pomtzu!

    It's exactly as I predicted. (to myself) Lisa was too tense and the other guy (his name escapes me at the moment) always looks like he just rolled out of bed. While that may not have anything to do w/his culinary skills, FN is looking for the whole package. Plus I think Aron's appeal is universal. Once the competition really got rolling and it came down to 4 persons, I could tell that Aron would be the winner. He wasn't concerned w/singing or comedy. He likes to cook and it shows. He'll be coached on how to improve his camera appeal.
    Blessings,
    Mary

    I was quite pleased, but surprised.

    Someone somewhere will surely give Lisa a show - but she's interested in so many things, she'd seem a better fit for HGTV or something. And Adam (Mr. Bedhead) maybe can do a podcast and get sponsors. His concept just didn't seem like it would be enough to base a whole show around.

    PROGRAM ALERT

    This Sunday was the contest that Deen and Fieri were supposed to host before the NASCAR race. You'll probably see it later on in the year, but there will be some kind of tie in in the prerace program....keep your eyes peeled!

    I wasn't in the room so I wasn't exactly "watching" but I heard it!

    Dang, I missed it.

    I'll have to wait for the TVFN program you know is coming!

    ----------------

    GF had his son on the show. What is the deal with the wristbands? His kid wears one to.

    SM,

    The Cubano style of sandwich is pressed like a paninni and the pickles are always part of it. Never had one, but pork. in a sandwich, is really good.

    I didn't pay too much attention to the episode, but I did notice that the woman didn't bother to strain or make her sauce "smooth"- I am not a fan of any sauces that have stuff floating around in it.

    I saw that Booby Flake show too. It was a rerun. That show was a comedy of errors. She almost flipped some food right off the grill, several times. Those potatos were questionable from the beginning.

    Has anybody ever tried that squash she had? The green ones. There are so many things I don't know about.

    I thought it was rather strange that she didn't come prepared to make the so called BBQ sauce. Richard, I'm with you. I like sauce as sauce. That stuff of her's was weird. Booby was handing her spices that he wasn't even sure what they were.
    I also got the sense that he felt he was being outdone by her a couple of times. He hates to be outdone by a woman.

    I saw GF's son on too. Ok....the young man is wearing an armband and his Dad is wearing a matching one. Hmmmm......how old is his Dad? Grow up Guy!!! I can never imagine GF as a husband and father. Holy Cow!!!

    I have to say it again, I love the Chef Jeff Project. Personally, I think he cuts some of the kids too much slack but he doesn't want to make them backslide. Well, some of them are backsliding anyway.

    I really love the show.

    I can't wait for the Thanksgiving special where we see the Iron Chefs competing.

    I am also seriously addicted.

    Doggone it!!! I missed the NASCAR thing too. I watched te race but missed that.


    I've been Boo'd...
    Thanks Barry!

    The green squash is called Chayote (Chai oh teh). My dad loved them and I haven't had any for a while. Again, you can find them in a regular store out here, but may have problems in different areas of the country.

    Flay has this little 'thing' that he does when someone makes a suggestion that is better than his he'll look down and away from the person. I noticed that on the Throwdown programs. On TD, when the gals have a better thought than he does, he does get a little attitude.

    I like the CJP but have to cringe when I hear the kids talk. I use the captioning feature on my TV set and when I see that the transcription is verbatim It drives me crazy. I am a stickler for kids being well spoken.
    I gots a real problem wit dat.

    ---------
    And speaking of squash?

    Last year I didn't pay too much attention to the holiday FN programs last year- I guess they had one where all the hosts show up on set with a dish and they sit down and eat- I guess RR showed up with some pumpkin soup-my mom had watched it and was very irritated that the other chefs came with some elaborate dishes and RR showed up with puree'd squash.

    I guess she really does practice frugal food preparation.
