Iron Chef tonight

The most recent episode of Iron Chef is on right now. Flay vs. Michael Smith, a Canadian, in Battle Avocado. Watching them dash around, slicing cool, creamy green avocados and red onions and tomatoes in glorious high definition is instilling a nearly overwhelming desire to go make giant bowl of guacamole, but I think I can hold out until tomorrow-- our Super Bowl Barely-Paying-Attention-To Party menu includes eight avocados' worth.

On tonight's new episode, Chef Duff from Ace of Fondant Cakes is taking on Iron Chef Michael Symon. I'll be watching. I'm kind of surprised at how curious I am as to how a cake chef will fare (food pun, there) in a non-cake challenge.

I mean, I'm assuming the challenge won't be cake. Jesus.

Tune in, 10pm Eastern!

Update: Post-show, I have to say I'm ashamed to have even momentarily considered the possibility that Duff Goldman can only decorate cakes. Homeboy can cook a dinner, no joke.

Sandra Lee's Kitchen

Look how white it is. Imagine Ms. Lee, concocting some sort of mixed-berry smoothie in her blender (laden with hi-test booze, natch), and neglecting to make sure the top is secure. Imagine a Vesuvian torrent of red and purple mash erupting onto her immaculate cabinets and countertops. Imagine her reaction.

I mean, look how white it is.

(This has been a test of the Blogger labeling thingy.)
