Had it with the Food Channel...

I wasn't surprised that Jamika was ousted - she kept doing exactly what they told her NOT to do, forgetting to smile and be pleasant even when stressed. That's kinda a big requirement for a TV host, doncha think?

I do think it will be either Debbie or Melissa, as both have a specific target market they will appear to, and Melissa has gotten better at controlling her reaction to stress, where Jamika got worse.

I think whatshisname - had to go look it up, I can picture him, but couldn't remember his name - it's Jeffrey - doesn't seem to have any identifiable "hook" or reason why you'd watch his show. He's perfectly nice ... but not, at least for me, that memorable. In one episode, he talked about how international his house is - he's Lebanese, his wife is from somewhere else - but he never seems to bring that multicultural influence to his food or his presentation.

Did anyone else find it strange that Michael and Jamika started out being so bubbly and outgoing and suddenly, both of them changed and got kicked off?

To me, it seems hard to believe that a person would start a show like that with everything it would take to win and change all of that later.

Jamika kept talking about knowing what she should do and she continuously did the opposite.

I think they get tired, and more stressed, and it just wears them out. It seems emotionally exhausting, and some handle that better than others.

I'm irked with this week's outcome. Debbie has behaved badly two weeks in a row and the judges have given her a pass both weeks. I thought she was gone for sure when she told BF that the capers were in the dressing. I'm rooting for Jeffrey.

But I saw a program I LOVED yesterday! It was "Dinner Impossible" and they were doing a dinner party for Will Shortz and crossword puzzle enthusiasts (okay, I'll say it because I am one - word geeks). I love Will Shortz' clever puzzles, I listen to the NPR Weekend Edition Sunday puzzle on my way to church each week, and I love to eat! perfect combo!!

I don't want to spoil it for anybody so I won't say anything about NFNS until tomorrow.

I will say to Richard: Dude, I sure hope you're watching FN tonight for all the Mexican stuff after NFNS. I have alot of questions for tomorrow.

Elyse, I saw that Dinner Impossible show too. It was really cute.
