The food network has become the station where the hosts and chefs look, well, good enough to eat.
At the Food Network, E.V.O.O. means extra-virgin olive oil. But theres also a bit of T&A on hand and that definitely does not stand for tomatoes and apples.
The Food network has a subscriber base of 88 million, a group that has blossomed in its 13 years from 6.5 million members in 1993.
Much of the success can be attributed to Emeril Lagasse, who strapped the fledgling food tv network to his back and carried it through the nineties.
But a new savior has arrived and frankly one that quite a bit easier on the eyes. If I may steal a phrase from the food diva, she's Yum-O!.
With four – count 'em hour - shows on the Food Network, including "30-Minute Meals," in which she puts together meals in under 30 minutes silly, and "$40 a Day," in which she dines while traveling on a budget - two best selling cookbooks out this year, a new magazine - Rachael Ray knows how to heat up things up in and out of the kitchen!
Ray is a 37-year-old wholesome hottie who has taken the Baton from Lagasse to become the face - and body - of the Food Network.
Ray is author of 11 books and namesake of a new magazine. She has also posed in skimpy shorts for a little FHM "action".
She's also the first foodie expert to do a talk show, which is set to air next fall. The show will focus on "taking a bigger bite out of life."
I don't know. She lived to be, what, 91, and pretty feisty, witty and together the entire time. It was probably all the butter and wine. Julia!
Well then, I shall assume you have other talents??
what's a poofer?

On that toilet seat thingy....I decided some decades ago that I would always put down the seat AND the lid, even on the private area cubicles in the bed rooms. I thought that setting it up for only the fairer sex's usage in the dark was too....too... ah, I won't say it.
Six months ago or so Pissant made a reference to getting us freeperettes together as about as easy as "herding cats."
And, he made that reference again last week.
Believe you me, i'm watching him.

Assume away......
