The Party Hearty Boys did a couple of seasons, I think. They are usually shown early on weekend mornings. The woman who won last time, the one from here, had a single season but it was such a poorly produced show that I figured it wouldn't be around a second time. Guy has personality to spare, and I think that's why he's been so successful on the Food Network. He's really a likeable kinda guy. I just wish his half hour show would do vegetarian dishes. I don't catch his show that often any more, but it seems to be a lot of chicken and tequila!

I LOVE GUY! He doesn't seem to be the vegetarian type. Wish I liked veggies, I just can't gag most of them down. Tastes like I'm eating dirt. And I'm getting tired of the few types of meat I like. Doesn't the new Next Food Network Star start soon?

I don't like 'em. I watched the first couple of episodes and just don't like them. I don't like how they interact with each other (the two). Plus, well, there's that vegetarian thing again. I guess I'm just too healthy for them.

I can't stand the Neelys!! I have no idea if the food is any good, but their schtick drives me insane. It wouldn't be bad, if she didn't say the same thing every time.

Just as an FYI for y'all... there's a cooking show with a newbit on Sunday mornings called "Cooking for Real." A couple of weeks ago she did this huevos rancheros type of dish. Well, I had watched that episode, thought the dish looked delish, and printed out the recipe. And today I did something I never EVER do... tried out a brand new recipe for others. Mother's Day. I prepped, packed up, and cooked at my dad's this a.m. And that egg dish? OMG... absolutely delicious and a total do again!

The other day, I tripped over a show on the Canadian Food Network, called Chef School. It seems to be a reality show covering the trials and tribulations of students of Canada's best cooking schools. The show apparently has been running for a while already. Is anyone watching this one?

I'm not wild about Cooking For Real's production (similar to last season's winner, it seems that they cut out a lot of prep and finish work). But that one recipe? It rocked!!!!

I ONLY like corn tortillas! I will check out the link when I get to a "real" computer - not my whimpy little system! As a sidebar, our chef (female) was so good that she had been recruited to head up a restaurant in Barcelona! And was leaving the week after we did!

That sounds good. I'll have to try them. Don't like corn tortillas, so I'll have to enjoy the extra fat, lol ...
