The Neeleys??

Hi jswindell,,Its so funny to get this response from you today because I almost sent one to you earlier today after their show aired. It was SO bad today!! Even more so than usual...Kissie face the whole time and the stupidist comments from him to and about her..Really sickening!! I was grossd out and thought of you and wondered if you were watching!! In any case, Your theory could be right..Who knows..Nothing surprises me anymore, Nothing..I just don't believe that their marriage is what the want us to think it is...I just dont buy it. People that are really happily married have no need to constantly try to impress others with their carrying on. I so wish the network would make them back off that, although it probably does bring viewers that think its cute. I love their recipes for the most part and if they would just cook and forget all the nonsense, I would really enjoy it. Like I said in my original post, I think I'm going to get one of their cookbooks and learn that way and skip tuning into the show. In fact, I'm trying to decide on a chef whose book I'm going to try and cook and then blog about it. I stole the idea from the movie Julie and Julia..That was just a movie but I thought why not actually do it. The Neeleys is one of my choices but I'm still not sure. I really enjoy french cooking and gourmet cooking and will probably go that way. I think that if I can get traffic to my blog, I could show people that "gourmet" cooking is no harder than everyday cooking..I'll keep you posted..Thanks for your thoughts..Gives me something to think about when I watch them, if I watch them!!!

Hi jswindell,,Thanks for responding. As you can see, you are the only one who did which kind of surprised me beause I thought a lot of people watched the Foodnetwork but I guess not. I, watch it all day, every day. I am a cooking school recent grad and I love cooking and still learn stuff everyday from these shows. I have been watching it ever since its inception some 10 plus years ago. We share a lot of the same feelings about different chefs. I can take or leave Sunny Anderson, but have made several of her recipes and they have been very good. I used to like RR but kind of burnt out on her. For a while there, no matter where you turned, there she was. I agree that some of her stuff is good, but a lot of it I have no interest in. Paula Deen, ya'll, gets on my nerves, ya'll and we cooked her stuff on a regular basis, ya'll, we would be as large as a barn, ya'll!! One day i'm going to count how many times she says that in 30 minutes and I bet the number will be staggering!!! Her brother Bubba, who she has on occasionally, is a better cook than her in my opinion. He has his own restaurant too and I've made a few of his recipes and they were all fantastic. I'm going to buy his book. Tyler Florence, well, how can I say this..I don't care what he's cooking, I just like to look at him. That too me is a sexy man and definately my type. Hot Stuff!!! I like Ina Garten too. She is very good but will admit that a few of her recipes were failures for me. Not sure if it was me, or the recipe but in any case, they left something to be desired. Her recipes typically are very expensive too. I could go on and on here but don't want to take anymore of your time. I going to request you as a friend and we can share food network stuff if you want..I don't have too many friends other than cooking school pals that are in to it like me so I don't really have anyone to share stuff with. There is a web site that you might get a kick out of if you haven't already seen it. Its called Food Network Humor and its people that rank on the chefs and stuff..Its funny, check it out. As far as my original discussion, The Neeleys,,please share with me what you think it is about them and why they act like that..Its only you and me as you can see!!! She gets on my nerves so much and really so does he and it is a shame because I love their cooking. I've made lots of their stuff and 9 times out of 10 its great. Well, I've got to close now. I'm in the middle of testing some cheesecake recipes and I need to go kick them up a notch!!
