Jacques Pepin...hands down. I've been watching his PBS shows ever since I can remember (and that's a loooong time). He has such an easy style and charm. It would be a dream!

How do YOU make a tomato sandwich?

Soft white bread with lots of mayo. Thick slices of warm tomato (never refrigerated -- kills the taste!) sprinkled with salt and pepper. Eat at the sink while the tomato juice drips down your arms!!

Hilarious!! I'm from the same original hometown as Paula so I can understand everything she says where others might not :-) So glad she can laugh at herself!

Dear Whole Foods,

Been to Whole Foods twice. Found it to be more of a deli than a grocery store. Serious cooks want to *cook* serious food, not buy already prepared. Also, the prices were beyond ridiculous. I can buy most of the same items at a regular grocery for far, far less.

Cook the Book: Eugenia Bone's 'Well-Preserved'

I've been canning and preserving for as long as I can remember. Learned from my mother, but now also carefully follow the latest USDA guidelines for safety. I'll do tomatoes, pickles, various jams and jellies. Would like to try pressure canning next.

Yes, I have and do make my own in my Kitchenaid mixer. There's a post about my butter making adventures on my blog at http://neverenoughthyme.wordpress.com/2009/04/02/make-your-ownbutter/

How can you not be a Sandra fan after that. That's more entertaining than any "competition" on foodtv.

Dear Whole Foods,

Once you bite into a Great A&P 150th anniversary chocolate chunk cookie, that taste will make you forever foresake Whole Paycheck.

Head on over to any A&P Fresh and rediscover the origins of foodie paradise, great food at fantastic savings.

Can't beat that A&P!!!

How do YOU make a tomato sandwich?

I cube my tomatoes, toss them with olive oil, basil, and pepper, and then stuff them into a hot dog roll. Avocado is nice, but not essential; thin sliced red onion is a plus.

Crusty baguette style bread, sliced lengthwise
Over-ripe tomato squished up and down
So the insides are slathered over the bread
Olive oil generously drizzled over all.

I've thought a bit about this and what concerns me most is the number of hours of Sandra Lee footage you must have had to watch in order to pull this together. You poor soul!

When I watched this, I threw up a little in my mouth. But I must admit - it was hilarious. Thanks so much for posting it.

Under EXXXXXXXXXXPRESSO in Webster's dictionary, the definition is: "Nails on a blackboard."

Whoever originated this little gem is a genius.

I only made it through 30 seconds; I couldn't take it anymore.

@ mr. guy: your girlfriend is hilarious.

She and her food continue to be craptastic. She is so loathsome.

You can make fun of Sandra Lee all you want, but let's face it she is famous and worked hard to do it. Sandra Lee was basically dirt poor taking care of her struggling family and worked her ass of to be where she is today. Not to mention she is a smoking hot cougar. I have watched the show too her food is definitely better than the crap Rachel Ray spins up.

Based on having had one of the best meals at Morimoto, he would be my choice.
Lidia Bastianich would be my second.
