OK...Who's Going to WIN NFNS....Adam, Aaron or Lisa?

They seem to have been pushing aaron as the "good" guy for awhile now, all the more evidenced by the close ups of him reading the holy bible. after his runaway kid story a few weeks ago I knew he would be making it to the end. unless they were to send him home to you know, look for his kid.
I think he might take it on the strength of his cooking also. I feel like I wouldn't watch his show though, not only do I not think he is ready to be in front of a camera yet, he also needs to take the marbles out of his mouth when he talks.

Adam is about 98% personality 2% cooking. I would watch a show hosted by adam as long as it wasn't completely focused on cooking. which is not exactly the point of the food network, though I do like his idea of making your own rubs and mayos and whatnot, I don't think that makes a good enough show, and his dishes are seemingly rather dull, but the judges lately have been hyping them more, but I don't buy it, I think its just the producers keeping him around. Have him host a game show on the food network or something. that would work. Having said all of that, I relate to adam best of all, and have for every episode, I can only hope that some network somewhere (if not the food network) picks him up for something because I could see his "TV personality" evolving quite nicely.

Lisa grew on me. I didn't like her one bit for the first 2 or 3 episodes, but I think she's alright now, and I also think that despite her mysterious 4 c's or whatever she has the best shot at a show because she can cook, she has warmed up to the camera and showed a more personable side, and her fancy dishes would make in interesting cooking show, as long as they aren't as impossible to make as they are to say/spell.

So really, I don't know... its probably going to be aaron. In the end though, I don't think its going to matter, because I don't think any of the contestants have enough going for them to make any show last longer than a few episodes. Except for adam, but not on the food network.

My favorite cold cereal is _____

Don't even get me started on Quisp

Count Chocula. Fruity Pebbles. Cinnamon Toast Crunch. Cookie Crisp (when there was still the cookie crook, before ralston sold out, and the formula got changed).
Anything with sugar is what I am getting at here.

Seriously Delicious Holiday Giveaway: Bacon of the Month Club

I like it to bend, with some crunch around the edges. reaching perfection when there is a fair balance of fat remaining on the strip and the pool of grease that said strip is resting in.

News flash: _____ will be discontinued in 2 weeks!

When I was young, I used to eat Screaming Yellow Zonkers like they were going out of style.
Then they sort of went away. Years and years later, and coincidentally only a few months ago, I did an ebay search for Screaming Yellow Zonkers. Sure enough, they were still in production, sold only in limited markets, like milwaukee. I got 5 boxes from ebay, and savored them. Just like I remembered. about a week after I finished that last box, I got an email from the guy I got them from and he said that Screaming Yellow Zonkers were being discontinued and he only had a few cases left that he would continue to unload on ebay, when they were gone, they were gone....
I didn't get anymore. The auctions all went for too much $$$, and I was content having gotten them again just before their demise. Just in time.

Oh and don't even get me started on Quisp...

What is your biggest food difference with your sweetheart?

She hates tomatoes, I like tomato sandwiches.
She feels that all food should have tobasco or some such hot hot pepper added to the mix, the mere thought of hot peppers right now is making my mouth burn right now is how much I can't handle spicy hot food.
Otherwise all is wonderful and we share the same tastes for pretty much everything.
Indian food buffets are on a moratorium right now for me for reasons that I will not get into here.

Question of the Day: What weird things did you like as a child?

I used to take 4 large marshmallows, put them in a salad bowl, microwave them for about 25 seconds (it was fun watching them get real big) then, when they were just about to burst, I would take them out of the microwave and add a spoonful of peanut butter and stir it all around. it was amazing, and I think I might make a batch today.
while I am at it, chalk another one up for dry cereal. I called it "cereal in a cup"
