Uh-Oh this could very well be the END OF THE FOOD NETWORK!
http://www.foodnetwork.com/food/show_rm



I caught this show this weekend. The episode where she somehow was able to make

In the Bag
Linguine with Clam Sauce
Stuffed Pork Chops
Fruit Compote
Peas and Carrots with Chipotle

In a half hour show. *GASP* kinda makes the 30 Minute Meal thing look stupid..huh?

Actually it is a show for people on the go who don't have time or have something ANYTHING better to do than take a freakin' HOUR to make something to FREAKIN' EAT! :eyes:

Okay aside from her using "Clam juice" which makes my stomach turn I thought it was by far the most practical show I have seen on the Food Network (How to Boil Water falls just short because those two really need to just go ahead and get it over with).

Oh and her "Anal retentive chef" type-behavior with the paper bags is something to behold.

Okay I lied nothing compares to watching Sara Lee's whiskey addled bending over to show us how to do the most menial tasks. For crying out loud the woman actually drinks on the show!! EVERY show!!!

1. yes I have watched
her a couple of times and she drives me crazy with her eyes and eyebrows and cheerleading. The meals are pretty much the same stuff just change the meats. Alot of stir frys and slow cooker stuff. She just wierds me out.

4. YES!!!
When I was single I used to do that on Sunday morning.

Spaghetti (a staple)
MAybe some groundbeef browned up (many uses for that)
Cut up everything for a salad.
Some Chicken of some kind
Etc.

I would just pop it into the microwave whenever I was hungry.

5. Sandra Lee needs help
She drinks more than me. And that's saying something!

I want to see her do a "breakfast" show. I wonder what her drink will be?

6. Something with vodka probably
milk and vodka

Coffee and vodka

vodka and vodka

:beer:

I actually think that her doing a cocktail at the end of that show is absolutely perfect and indicative of the crowd I know she comes from.
