Hello World!
Sandra Lee's Semi-Homemade Cooking show is on. Today she's playing with her niece again. "Miss Stephanie." This is so sad. So, so sad. Sandra is squealing like a 13 year old at a Backstreet Boys concert, because they're decorating cookies. Like, OMG!1 The best part is her niece seems totally unimpressed by her. God, that's so embarrassing. This woman's biological clock is beyond the aid of the snooze button, and her poor nieces and nephews are paying the price. I should hate her. I should be annoyed by her. But really, I just pity her. Has anyone noticed her kitchen drapes always match her outfits? Why, please God, why does she do this? The thought of her spending hours upon hours sewing drapes that match her shirts makes me wanna gently weep into a sofa cushion.
Also, I don't understand what's so great about her show. It's all semi-home made. Basically, get yourself a frozen cheese pizza, sprinkle a couple of pepperonis on it and shove it in the oven. There. I can have my own cooking show. I'm a genius. I know I should just stop watching her show but I can't. I just can't. The Food Network totally owns me.
I've been meaning to rant about Rachael Ray for a while now, but I fear if I start I'll never stop, never, until my head eventually caves in and I perish. I just gotta say, I can't be the only person who finds her unbelievably annoying, who finds her recipes totally disgusting and fattening (she puts extra virgin olive oil - or evoo, yum-o! - on everything), and her personal hygene revolting. Every time the camera zooms in on her hands, you can see the gunk under her fingernails. That is totally disgusting. The first thing they teach you in cooking school - wash your hands in between projects. No, this rule does not apply to Rachael. Gross.
She was actually challenged to participate in Iron Chef America. She's up against Giada De Laurenttis. All I gotta say is: go Giada! You all gotta watch this (February 26). I know Rachael is gonna set herself on fire. I just know it!

CSI Files Two Years Ago
Here's what was hot back in January of 2004:
- 'CSI,' Petersen Compete For Golden Globes Tonight
CSI and William Petersen (Gil Grissom) were honored at the Golden Globes with the Best Drama and Best Actor nominations. - 'CSI' Shut Out At Golden Globes
But sadly, both were snubbed. The best drama award went to 24, while Petersen lost in his category to Without A Trace's Anthony LaPaglia. - Dourdan: 'CSI' Popular With Black Audiences
Gary Dourdan (Warrick Brown) was surprised to hear CSI is the most watched show in African American households. "I thought that there was a lot of other shows that featured an all-black cast that that wouldn't be possible. But to have this drama that I'm the only ethnicity on this show be the number one show in black households, I feel like a pride that you can't even imagine,"

This Week On TV
- Tonight at 10:00pm, CSI: Miami's "Silencer" will air on CBS again. Here's how the network described it:
"When a female executive is shot at an afternoon concert, the evidence leads the CSIs to suspect that the dreaded Mala Noche gang has struck again. Now, as the team gathers evidence, they must try to find the connection between the upper class victim and Miami's most dangerous criminal gang. Meanwhile, Wolfe starts to catch on to Delko and Natalia's off-duty relationship."
- On Wednesday night at 10pm, CBS will air the new CSI: New York episode "Risk." Here's a brief synopsis:
"While riding the subway home, Danny sees a dead man on the tracks and stops the train before impact. Although the initial thought is that the college student died after subway surfing, Mac, Lindsay and Danny deduce foul play when they learn that he and a friend had been partying all over town leaving angry suspects behind. Meanwhile, when one of the most notorious commodities traders in the industry is found hanging outside his office window, Stella, Dr. Hawkes and Det. Flack are called to investigate. The apparent suicide is questioned when they learn the trader had one of the worst stock days in memory and a long list of clients with losses in the millions."
- And on Thursday at 9:00pm, the CSI episode "Kiss-Kiss, Bye-Bye" will air again. This is what you can expect from it:
"A case in forensics becomes a case in Vegas' history when a well-connected, sexy ex-showgirl with ties to the mob hosts a party that results in the murder of one of her guests. The suspects are virtually a who's who from yesteryear, but the case holds a personal connection for Catherine as her father, Sam Braun, emerges as one of the prime suspects."
In addition to the above episodes on CBS, cable channel SpikeTV will of course continue its daily CSI repeats.
