I don't mind the shopping part too much, but then there's a lot I'd like to know about what's on the market.

I don't know how amusing he thinks he is, but some of his shtick is starting to wear on me. However, I'm finding that to be true with Emeril, Rachel Ray, I no longer watch Paula Deen, etc. Recently it seems as though Food Network is getting more into graphics and the chefs and cooks are getting a little hyper. Rachel Ray seems to be getting more animated and her cooking is starting to come across more like Sandra Lee's.

I wish Alton would calm down a bit, and loose the costumes and graphics, which get in the way of watching and learning from the show.

Well, off to breakfast,

Shel
