MasterChef starts Wed., May 22

[Natalka]

I agree, it was all too much! I'm glad Luca stayed, too.

Natasha is such an arse!

Is anyone else watching the Baking Competition? It's interesting, though I don't think it's going to stay around long.

[Darth Penguin]

I'm guessing Sprawl-mart is a sponser of the show based on the fact Joe mentioned wm 4 times in the fire-fighter challange with regards to the quality of the ingredients.

[Natalka]

It was last year, too, DP - all WM all the time.

[KelJo]

on tonight! I will prob catch it at 11:00

[Darth Penguin]

depends on the hockey...

[danger_dan]

interesting show last night...
looking forward to next week though, Christine Ha is returning as a guest Chef

[Natalka]

Great show - the Glee challenge was neat!

Krissi was smart with her choices for the pressure test - oy, poor Bime!

Next week will be good with Christine there - and them trying to cook blindfolded.

It was better last night, I did not know Lydia was Joe's mother. Cool!! I liked the Glee part too but almost passed out when missy cut off her finger nail..I am glad I was already sitting down..LOL..I watched the late showing so didn't see the last 1/2 hr, ..lol..so will have to watch it online

[frugal50]

that guy deserved to get kicked out, who the hell would put red and green peppers in a classic dish like that!

joe and lydia were right.

If you eatch the older episodes of Lidia's Italy, you will see Joe with her sometimes, he was MUCH heavier years ago.



Oh, and Jessie getting hurt - oy!

My getting cut story, so SKIP if you don't want to hear it.


Last summer I got a mandolin, and was using it to slice potatoes. Unfortunately, the guard slipped, and I cut my thumb - I was home alone, and I had been sitting at the kitchen table doing this, so I just kept trying to stop the bleeding.

- then my son and husband came home - and it's odd what I don't remember - my son said I was just sitting there, really spacey and I just held up my thumb, and he said there were so many tissues on the table full of blood and I didn't answer him when he spoke to me at first - so that was my first experience with being 'in shock'

- what I do remember is him putting his arm around me and talking to me quietly - and apparently I just started talking to him as if he had just walked in the room and said I cut my finger - and it wasn't til later he told me this other stuff.

Definitely a bizarre experience to have gone through. It was a pretty bad slice.

the Lady and i watch it and both went at the same time as the globs of iodine/powder/blood spewing out of her finger.

[KelJo]

I was already sitting and my knees went weak!! ha ha..did anyone see the look on Luca's face when Joe was telling that guy off over his pepper pasta?? that was the highlight for me (the first show) ha ha

[KelJo]

Wow the resemblance is there..!! I never knew, maybe I will like him better now!! ha ha. That sounds like a bad experience & cut. I just had to skim through it couldn't read it all, my knees started to pain again..lol...good thing your husband and son came home when they did!! Did it leave a scar??

That part was nuts! I was watching with my son and he was all GAH, can't believe Joe was saying all that stuff!

I don't even know if there is a scar from that particular cut - that particular thumb has been hurt before, and uh... often.

[Natalka]

Great show last night!

The drama with Krissi - oy! She's darned lucky with Beth going home instead.

So crazy that Jonny had his best dish at the beginning, but ended up going home... really silly of him to have lost his temper and crammed that box shut, sheesh!
