i dont watch alot of tv but i have a guilty pleasure and its definitely not survivor or teen mom. i am a self diagnosed food network junkie. i spend hours upon hours watching ina garten and gordon ramsey make culinary masterpieces while i sit on my rear end eating tostitos and salsa. cat cora would not be impressed.
what is the obsession with cooking shows? i go to the gym and watch cupcake wars, diners drive-ins and dives and chopped like these shows were some kind of documentary or must see feature film. then after i sweat it out on the treadmill i return home to eat a spoonful (or 6) of betty crocker icing right out of the tub.
disgusting, i know, but i am a creature of habit. not to say that i dont enjoy a fantastic meal and all the ambience that comes with it but when it comes to my own culinary feats i could be described as hopeless. its not that i lack the taste or skill when forced into the kitchen i just dont care. why would i take time roasting a bunch of red peppers when i can just cut them up and eat them raw.
so i would just like to thank those who have the interest and passion for baking, barbecuing, roasting, mincing, julienning and even using a mandolin. you make this world full of many more interesting things then my palate can savor.
