Live Blogging the Food Network: Rachel Ray

Back to back episodes, right at mealtime.

(Dumping pre-shredded carrots into a salad) "I got these nice fresh veggies already prepped. It's one way of letting the supermarket do the work for ya!...Yum!" It makes me feel like she's going to make me line up in table groups and go to gym class. If she made noodle necklaces one day, I wouldn't be entirely surprised.

Her commercial food product use makes it less incongruous when the Network cuts to a commercial for Arbor Mist Orchard Fruits-flavored Chardonnay.
