cooking shows, who do you love? hate?
Posted: Feb 14, 2013
The Pioneer Woman is my favorite. All her foods, casseroles, desserts look absolutely delicious, full of flavor, rich and wonderful. All her shows have some sort of fun theme and she just looks like she really enjoys herself. I also love her ranch, her family, and her life-style in general. A very comforting show about simple pleasures of family and good food.
My least favorite is Trisha's Southern Kitchen. I have seen her cook with Paula, and I enjoyed her then, but when she spun off into her own show, her and her dishes fell flat. Her recipes look flavorless and a bit bizarre, and the interactions with guests are always awkward and a bit forced.
Any favorites? ;
I love them all - Pioneer Woman, the Next Great Baker

I especially like the nighttime contests - Chopped, Top Chef, Worst Chef in America, etc. Not too crazy about the new network program, Taste. Can't stand Bobby Flay, Emeril, and most of the original programs.
I love Chopped! - sm

I've made so many things based on watching her show, and they are always delicious. I really like the way she uses a lot of fresh ingredients and usually puts a lighter spin on traditional recipes. Her chicken chili is scrumptious!

She's more relaxed than Martha Stewart, who is very stiff. Don't know what that's about.

"Who Killed American Unions?" Powerful Graph Shows Shows Middle Class IncomeJan 17, 2013From The Atlantic: "Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker doesn't like unions, and unions don't like him. But the most remarkable thing about Walker's relationship to labor isn't that he thinks unions are worthless -- most Republicans agree -- but that he thinks about them, at all.
Today, unions have been swept into dusty corners of the U.S. workforce, such as Las Vegas casino cleaners and New York City hotel staff.
For much of the 20th century, things were different. A ...

So Bored With Cooking The Same Things Over And OverDec 18, 2010Sad to say that I end up cooking the same five or six things every week. I think my taste buds have atrophied.

Wish Me Luck. I'm Cooking For Thanksgiving For The First Time In YearsNov 19, 2010I used to make Thanksgiving dinner for 15 people, friends and family, until the kids left home and mom and her boyfriend died, and friends moved away. Then there was just 2 of us. With my job, working Thanksgiving day was no big deal and I always worked that day, so DH would order takeout turkey dinners from a local restaurant so I wouldn't have to worry about cooking.
This year, there was a good price on turkey. Since I am not working, I decided to make dinner. ...

Tea Party Republicans Love Love Love Ted CruzOct 18, 2013even among Republicans, according to a survey from Pew Research. But the group is still potent within the Republican Party — which means that Sen. Ted Cruz gets a bit of good news on an otherwise bleak day.
"Tea Party" is a necessarily vague affiliation. There are members of Tea Party groups, of course, but Pew largely had to allow poll respondents to self identify. And a lot of Republicans did so.
About four-in-ten (41%) Republicans and Republican leaners agree with the Tea Pa ...

(The discussion on skinhead groups can be skipped over, if desired, with the actual 7 stages explained below.)

Polling Shows The Tea Party Is Actually Authoritarian (and StronglyOct 25, 2012From Discover Magazine, by Chris Mooney
The New York Times just ran an oped by social scientists Robert Putnam and David Campbell, reporting on polling results about the Tea Party. This dovetails very closely with a discussion weâve been having here, and provides additional evidence suggesting that this movement is not libertarian:

I Firmly Believe In God, But Find Shows Such As Ancient Aliens Very Upsetting.

I must admit I was fascinated with their show, but realized it is an Atheist's attempt to make Christianity seem like a fantasy and that God really does not exist. These people are very clever and master manipulators of the truth. They are very convincing and I find it very sad to think they prob ...

"GOP Platform Through The Years Shows The Party's ShiftSep 06, 2012This article from the Washington Post is easy reading, very interesting, not offensive to anyone, and gives a quick historic overview through our lifetimes.
