Its funny but as I sit here and think about it my viewing of the t.v. food shows has changed in the last year.
Rachael Ray.........in the beginning I absolutley loved her show. But as time went on I'm just not as into it as I was. I think maybe its because food network used to have a message board and people used to harp on her for the way she used so many hand gestures and said certain words or phrases all the time. I never realized it till they pointed it out and now I can't help focusing in on that and its made me not enjoy her show as much.
Paula Dean..........I used to love, love watching her show. However, since she and Michael got married she's become a little too giddy. She giggles so much now. Maybe after the one year mark she'll calm down a bit and I can again enjoy her show like I used to.
Barefoot Contessa.........I have always enjoyed watching her show. I've tried several of her dishes and they were winners each and every time.
Michael Chirrelo (? spelling)...........he's a cutie and I am drawn to watching his show. Granted I've tried a few things and they didn't agree with my taste but I still go back for more
Giada.........I love watching her cook.....she has a lot of passion in her cooking.
Wolf Gang Puck...........I just love to sit back and watch him cook.
I really like the new show you guys mentioned............the one where the guys picks up a girl in the grocery store and fixes the meal in her home.
But when it comes to the great ones..........hands down Julia Child and Jacque Pippan (?spelling). I really loved it when they cooked together.
