pfft to Rachael Ray - what is wrong with Sandra Lee?

[purr]

Watching her making a romantic lunch right now - food actually looks pretty good. Theres a lot of people knocking her on her recipes on foodtv.com. Cute shirt she has on today.

[supernova]

1. They love her breasts

more than anything having to do with her short-cut cooking.

[purr]

5. She does got some big ones.. wonder if theyre real.

[supernova]

The placement says real

If they were a boob job, they'd be more "up."

[purr]

12. Thats true too...

I noticed with her sometimes they're bigger one day than the next.

[supernova]

13. Think she's breast feeding?

:shrug:

[Deja Q]

19. Wait a minute. All this talk without visual proof?

That's cheating! :rofl:

[Deja Q]

18. Oh, you mean they want to knock her up...

Not just knock her... :rofl:

(Was I baited to respond? :spray: :rofl: )

[supernova]

20. It's all about the knockers

:rofl:

2. "Recipes?"

She makes food from boxes.

[purr]

3. Yeah but like me, with 4 kids and constantly running I dont have time

to always cook from scratch all the time. I DO cook from scratch but when theres so much going on at times its pretty hard.

[Benfea]

7. Her recipes are pretty fast, though.

C'mon, the title of her show is "30 Minute Meals" or something.

Anyway, I don't know why, but she annoys me. The only Food Network shows I really watch anymore are Alton Brown (Good Eats) and Iron Chef America.

[purr]

9. I live alton! I have my DVR sert to record every new show he puts out

Hes the only one my husband will watch too.

[Benfea]

14. Alton is probably the real reason I watch Iron Chef America. ;)

I don't think I've ever tried his recipes, nor do I know if I ever will, but I love the "McGuyver" aspect, the science-of-cooking stuff, and of course all the cheesy pop-culture references.

[supernova]

16. Alton is my Food TV crush

:loveya: :loveya:

[jmowreader]

21. The title of her show is "Semi-Homemade"

30 Minute Meals is another Rachael Ray show.

Apparently, the intent of Sandra's program is to show you how to spruce up convenience food so it looks like you slaved over a hot stove for hours cooking it.

Go to foodtv.com and find Sandra's "BBQ Chicken Pizza." It's a fairly basic recipe--nice interaction in the cheeses, which is good--but she starts by cutting up and sauteing chicken tenders. Chicken tenders, which are breaded hunks of chicken meat, have their place--but it's not in a recipe. The pizza would have been a little less expensive, tasted better and been just as quick and easy to make if she would have started with boneless chicken breasts...or a LOT less expensive if she would have started with something you had to bone out, like thighs.

[supernova]

23. Yes, that's exactly it

the intent of Sandra's program is to show you how to spruce up convenience food so it looks like you slaved over a hot stove for hours cooking it.

I can appreciate the intent of the show. It's hard to be a great hostess when you work and have small kids. Older ones are different, they can help out.

24. I don't have time to cook from scratch as often as I'd like, either.

I'll spruce up a box of Kraft mac & cheese with worchestershire sauce and Tabasco. Delish. But I don't have a TV show about it. ;)

[eyesroll]

25. Problem is, her stuff doesn't take any less time -- it seems to be boxes

for the sake of being from boxes.

She'll buy a $20 cheesecake and gut it and mix the guts with cream and pipe them into sugar-cookie shells she mixed and baked, and do the same thing with a $8 pumpkin pie.

It's faster and cheaper (and likely better) to buy pre-baked tartlet shells, a can of pumpkin filling, a box of cheesecake mixm and go from there.

22. and booze! Don't forget "Sandra's cocktail time"

"Ok you need a fifth of rum, a 5th of vodka, a fifth brandy and a little limeade concentrate and mix them all together, your guests will love it!!" Her guests must leave her house shitfaced.

[billyskank]

4. There is only one goddess of the kitchen

Nigella. *swoon*

[purr]

6. I bet Paula can out cook her!

I LOOOVE Paula!

[billyskank]

8. Cooking? What's that?

:blush:

[supernova]

10. That thing we do at the stove....

with pots and pans. :D

[purr]

11. LOL!

:)

[Benfea]

15. My mother loves Paula.

My mom is Japanese and even after all these years, her understanding of English is pretty poor, so she can't understand a single word coming out of Paula's mouth (on account of the thick accent Paula has), but mom just loves Paula's personality. She just sits there giggling "Her accent so cute!"

[supernova]

17. LOL!

:rofl: :rofl:
