I saw Rachael Ray walk into my highschool today.

[LeftPeopleFinishFirst]

Don't act like you're not jealous!!! :P

[DeposeTheBoyKing]

1. Who's that?

[LeftPeopleFinishFirst]

4. She has a cooking show on food network.

I don't watch it, but apparently she's like, the most famous alumnus we have... :shrug:

[PaganPreacher]

9. Watching her eat a chocolate covered banana....

was a transcendental experience.



Thank you, Food Network!



The Pagan Preacher
I don't turn the other cheek.

[imenja]

12. wow, I didn't know she did near porn

no wonder so many men like her

[PaganPreacher]

20. There's a reason....

those shows are called "food porn."

Rachael Ray, Nigella Lawson, Giada De Laurentiis, Sandra Lee (Semi-Homemade Cooking).... all work the sensual side of cooking.

The Pagan Preacher
I don't turn the other cheek.

[imenja]

21. Gina De Laurentis I don't buy

She's way too skinny to be a cook. She must throw up the food afterward. Nigella Lawson is beautiful. But my favorite of the cooking hosts is Paula Deen. She seems like she'd be the perfect mom.

[PaganPreacher]

28. Giada is a Cordon Bleu grad! I didn't know until....

I just looked her up on FoodNetwork.com.

She worked for Wolfgang Puck at Spago, too.

Maybe she eats small portions, and that is how she is so skinny. :-)

(A wise woman once said, "never trust a skinny cook.")

If I am ever near Savannah, I want to have dinner at Paula Deen's restaurant.

[LeftPeopleFinishFirst]

29. Believe it or not...

A lot of professional chefs develop eating disorders. I read a journal article about it for my psychology class. Kinda interesting.

[imenja]

30. really? why is that?

[Lavender Brown]

There are all kinds of body types...

My sister cooks and eats high-carb food in large quantities, and is as thin as a rail (thinner than Giada even). :shrug:

[imenja]

46. Have you ever seen a rail thin restaurant chef?

I haven't. Of course that doesn't mean they don't exist.

[AngryAmish]

42. Me-ow!

jealous?

[imenja]

44. no. I have no desire to look like her.

I realize many people believe extremely thin women to be attractive, I do not. Nigella Lawson, on the other hand, is stunning.

I suppose FoodTv finds actresses to do a number of their shows rather than actual chefs. Rachel Ray and de Laurentis probably fall in that category. Sara Molton, Paula Deen, and Mario Bataglia are, on the other hand, actual chefs.

[purr]

48. I gain 30 lbs

just watching Paula.. omg does she make gooooood food

[LeftPeopleFinishFirst]

18. Yeah it's funny...

She doesn't look like that, they had her on our local news and she is much less tan and way more plain than in most of her publicity pictures...


As a hetero woman, I say she's more attractive when she's not airbrushed.

[PaganPreacher]

24. I agree with you!

On $40 a Day, she looks like a very cute "kid next door" type of woman.

I like natural beauty, far better than surgical alteration or airbrushed photos.

[Redstone]

45. Whoa! I always figured she was a hotrod, but now

I know it!

Redstone

[RagingInMiami]

2. She's awesome

[Seabiscuit]

34. Indeed - I met her at a book signing at Sur La Table in Carlsbad several

months ago. She's even more awesome in person. I think I broke my jaw when it hit the floor.

[n2mark]

3. I don't have to act because I am jealous

[boneygrey]

5. Me too n/t

[LeftPeopleFinishFirst]

6. haha

:D

[Reverend_Smitty]

7. I don't know how that woman isn't 500lbs

I've never seen someone love food as much as that woman. But I must say her shows are entertaining, especially $40 a day

[LeftPeopleFinishFirst]

8. Yeah, I was thinking the same thing

She's so enthusiastic about food... and always smily, almost too much...

[Left Is Write]

10. Well, I'm not jealous, but I *am* curious.

What was she doing there?

[LeftPeopleFinishFirst]

14. She graduated from my high school

She was doing a little cooking show in the auditorium, but I didn't get around to buying tickets for it. It sold out :(

[Left Is Write]

17. Oh, that's too bad. It sounds like it would have been fun.

[SheilaT]

11. I have tried a couple of her meals

and you really do fix them in thirty minutes. The first time I did it I was absolutely astonished. But it was great and quick to fix. Clearly she does the show in real time.

Oh, and it was very, very tasty. Something called Chicken Tajine, not sure of the spelling, but a kind of modified middle-eastern chicken in a sauce.

[Bill McBlueState]

15. tahini?

I think tahini sauce is lemony, and there's yogurt involved somehow.

[SheilaT]

36. No, not tahini which

as you know does contain yogurt.

I'm doing a phonetic spelling, of Tajine. It involved boneless chicken breast and a medley of spices including coriander and I forget what else. Onions, some dried fruit such as apricots.

[yellowcanine]

13. She seems to enjoy licking and sucking. ........

[Seabiscuit]

35. C'mon... don't get me started on her lucious lips...

[fishnfla]

16. Totally jealous

cool for you

[AntiCoup2K4]

19. I'm inviting Rachel over for Thanksgiving

[imenja]

22. okay, not near porn

This is soft core.

[Robeson]

25. I wish I was a spoon...

....:P

[KurtNYC]

40. I hear she loves E.V.O.O.

"I'll just pour a little E.V.O.O., extra virgin olive oil on here..."

I love how she uses her little abbreviation and then says the whole name of the product. She seems fun.

[entanglement]

51. I had to turn the AC all the way

up after seeing that pic

:-)

[Robeson]

23. Yes, I'm extremely jealous......

....I just wish you had sent her over to my house! Yummy! :9

[Lex]

26. She came over and washed up the dinner dishes for me!

[Robeson]

27. Wow, she gets around. Why just last night....

...she came over and ate some strawberries with me!!...

[MrScorpio]

31. Nice

Autograph?

[Vektor]

32. I love her!

Anyone who knows that much about food, rules. She has a great personality - and I really dug her recent show about baseball parks and their famous foodstuffs.

[Borgnine]

33. I'm tempted to try and make a joke...

...about what else she could in thirty minutes.

[Seabiscuit]

49. Her best show is still "$40/Day"

At that rate, thirty minutes would only cost you $0.83!!!

No greater bargain on the planet!!!!

[Beware the Beast Man]

37. She walked into my dreams the other night.

:loveya:

[Magrittes Pipe]

38. Ewwww.

:scared:

[AlCzervik]

39. Did she bring her Garbage Bowl®

[name not needed]

41. The asshole British exchange students went to DC for a couple of days

You still fucking win!

[LeftPeopleFinishFirst]

50. I always win.

:D

[bigwillq]

43. I am sooooo jealous!

I love Rachel! I just watched her 30 minute meals at 2:30 p.m. est.
Is she that cute in person?:hi:

[Seabiscuit]

53. She's not "cute" in person. She's drop-dead gorgeous.

[El Fuego]

47. I'd be jealous if it were Tyler Florence.

Tyler Florence...*sigh* :loveya:

I was checking out the pix on this thread, and I had no idea there was so much Rachael Ray Foodie Porn!!!

Yeah, she's really cute, but I think her new "Celebrity Dish" show SUCKS. I really like her other shows, though.

[Seabiscuit]

52. Kick for the pix

[Seabiscuit]

54. One more time.

For the most bootilicious woman on the planet.

[Robeson]

55. Its late, its about Rachael, so I'm kickin' it.......

....:loveya:
