I wasn't able to watch my recording of it until today and so, had been anxiously waiting. It was wonderful to see you there with Al, looking relaxed (and so tall next to him!!). Even the forgotten clams seemed like a planned joke. Was it? I was darn proud of you!! Hope you had a fun time. I'm sure it won't be your last appearance on national TV. Bask in the glow, Donna Rose David,

Thanks for the kind words. <em>Svelte</em>? Not exactly, but passable. I don't think Meredith got a taste afterwards—mostly because the hosts and the crew dove right in. Four cataplanas full of food went in no time. And I haven't cooked <em>with</em> Emeril (it would be tremendous fun), but I was a guest on his Fall River, MA, show when he did "Emeril Live." I sat with his father. I'll pass on your compliments to The One. Martha, you flatterer—I want to move to Kansas and marry you. Thanks for the kind words. Svelte? Not exactly, but passable.

Not a sign of a white sideburn & you looked svelte. Too bad you didn't get to cook with Meredith, but perhaps she got to sample your gorgeous dish afterwards. Kudos to you & THE ONE for his coaching. Have you cooked with Emeril—my second favorite Portuguese chef? David, I just watched the online version of your TODAY segment & you were great! Not a sign of a white sideburn & you looked svelte.

I was on the set today with Bianca Henry, going through the blocking for the segment. It was a thrill. I've already had a second glass wine, will watch "Desperate Housewives," and then trot off to bed. See you tomorrow.

I'm the stage manager, and the note about your spot called your web site "way cool." Well, that's good enough for me. Then I saw the peacock, and your secets are safe with me. Get a good night's sleep. Have an extra glass of wine. I already did. I’m looking forward to meeting you on the set in the morning.

Unfortunately, I'll have to time-shift you due to my being at work while the show airs. Congratulations on this achievement. We look forward to watching, albeit after the fact.

And you're right about the hand focus—now I have to add a <em>male</em>icure to the list of fluff and buff I have to do this weekend. At least I have the recipe down pat. nakedbeet, well, The One and I went shopping this morning and bought a very handsome blue sweater and blue-and-yellow checked shirt to wear underneath.
