This reunion show was one of very few reality shows that I enjoy watching and do not cringe, wondering what some loose cannon will say. I smiled a lot!

I just thought I would pass this along in case anyone is interested. If you are on Facebook, there are a number of the chefs who have their own groups or pages, including Fabio. (There are a number of pages also started by someone other than the actual chef, so you have to dig for the right one.) I belong to Fabio's and Stefan's groups on FB. On Fabio's page today, he posted a great tribute to Natasha Richardson who, as you may know, passed away last night. She was a judge this season, and Fabio said some very nice things about her. He is such a sweet, sweet man. On a grander scale, he also sends updates out about his appearances on shows and such. So, if you have a Facebook page and are interested, sign up for his group. Funny note: He writes as he talks, and when I read his posts, I can hear his voice saying what is on the page. ;-)

I found Fabio at http://www.facebook.com/pages/Fabio-Viviani/36219199931 I found him by going to wikipedia's top chef listing to find his last name "Viviani", then googled: facebook Fabio Viviani --and viola! His tribute to Natasha Richardson is touching and very Fabio, complete with misspellings! Looks like he has a fan favorite party coming up tomorrow the 20th; didn't sign in to Facebook, so couldn't get the full info. EDITED: Okay, I went and signed in. He is having a fan favorite party at his restaurant in California, open to everyone, 90 people already signed up. His description: "At Cafe Firenze Italian Restaurant and Martini Bar, I, Fabio will throw a party for all of you....dont miss, special drinks and complimentary appetizer, with DJ and lots of fun !!!"

It looks like Top Chef is starting their tour again. Looks like there are only tickets available for New York right now. I also only see Hosea and Nikki listed as the chefs. I thought there are usually more than two contestants. Did anyone attend any of the tour dates last season? http://thetour.bravotv.com/

It was fun...tickets were free. Basically it was about an hour long in trailer were they cooked. For our session they made a squash soup. The real point was them chatting and answering questions the whole time about their experience on the show and what they were going next, etc. It was very interactive. They talked about a bit about what they were cooking and some cooking tips, then we all got to sample it at the end (and it was good!)

I see New Orleans is on the list. I'm going to assume that stop is here in May when the Food & Wine Exposition is going on.

I heard she was doing that. I was kinda disappointed. It's very Paris Hilton of her, lol.

She is definitely hotter than Paris. I think she is one of the most beautiful women in the world. I put her right up there with Angelina Jolie. This is just so .... tacky .... of her, lol. I didn't expect that. She seems much, much classier. Maybe she needed the money!

I was surprised by it also. I have a hard time imagining that she used to be married to Salmon Rushdie. She's expanding her image horizons, to say the least.:-)

DS was watching TV after school Friday and it was a Star Trek episode - guess who was on it! PADMA! Sure enough, I looked it up on IMDB and there it was. She is beautiful no matter what.
