So, as I was doing all that web-ly work this past weekend, I often found myself watching the Food Network. I’ve learned a few things in the process, and I’l share that with you in a short list.
- TV chefs have got to have the best jobs in the world. I mean, they get to spend all day in a kitchen, eating all the yummy food they make, and most of them get to showcase their alcoholism right there on the air! I mean, seriously, if your job is cooking and drinking, and you hook thousands of people into watching you cook food they could never make and drink drinks they will never mix, you’ve got it made.
- As simple as they make all those dishes look, I realized I could never actually cook any of that stuff in my home. Who has all those utensils? Choppers, peelers, smashers, not to mention the massive stores of herbs and spices. Personally, I’m doing pretty well to have salt and pepper.
- Why doesn’t anyone ever make, you know, Mamwich, Ramen, mac and cheese, etc? I mean, make some REAL food for once!
There was more, but Iron Chef Bobby Flay captured my attention, and well, I’m inspired to get cooking. PB&J, here I come.

When my brother was little, he totally wanted to be a TV chef with his own show. With his awesome sense of humour and gourmet “cheesy scrambled eggs” he would have been a hit for sure!

Jake: Thanks for letting me know!
Jamie: Hey, cheesy scrambled eggs? That’s a recipe I can totally get behind. While I’ve never known anyone who wanted to be a TV chef, one of my brother’s good high school buddies is the sous-chef at one of the 5-star hotels in Dallas.
