But, I did find a yummy, easy dessert bar that I enjoyed quite a bit.SnoWhitehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12939257456903076156noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7310300.post-6951137996605074672007-12-17T18:21:00.000-08:002007-12-17T18:21:00.000-08:00I have made a few of Rachael's recipes, and I like...I have made a few of Rachael's recipes, and I like almost all of them. And I've never had a problem with going over 30 minutes, but maybe I made simpler dishes.<BR/><BR/>I'm not familiar with Sandra either, but I do know that many people (namely foodies) can't stand her.

These two 'cooks' are pretty much on the same level, which is good for Smackdown. I use the term 'cook' lightly considering SL uses premade items all the time - that's her thing. Anyways, I think a challenging smackdown would be more interesting - batali vs. ripert? morimoto vs. pepin? bastianich vs. moulton? These are real chefs and I can't help but trust their expertise a bit more. I'd be so into that challenge!- amy @ neverfull.wordpress.comAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7310300.post-84470578326641561442007-12-15T11:33:00.000-08:002007-12-15T11:33:00.000-08:00HAR!

We could never hate you.. although some of us could question your sanity at times. ;)<BR/><BR/>Actually they both look fantastic and oddly, they both sound delicious to me right now. I say oddly because they are such different dishes, you'd think one would sound better than both..<BR/><BR/>Anyhoo.. I can't believe I just said that a Sandra Lee recipe sounded good! Maybe because I read it here and didn't have to deal with her mammories and her obvious lust for the cocktail would come as soon as she was off camera...<BR/><BR/>xoxoLishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05631520734280170415noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7310300.post-8184848895767961962007-12-13T11:48:00.000-08:002007-12-13T11:48:00.000-08:00I love your smackdown!

Ray obviously has more interesting recipes...but sometimes her flavors are off-the-wall or strange to me. You cant make a dinner from her cookbook for your whole family and have everyone actually eat it! There will be a lot of PB&J sandwiches around the table. Sandra's dishes remind me of things my grandmother made and I think its very nostalgic for some of us. Though, I think they both have extremely annoying personalities!Jessiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05740527566632962866noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7310300.post-26802294393447586732007-12-13T09:47:00.000-08:002007-12-13T09:47:00.000-08:00So does this prove that "the personality" isn't th...So does this prove that "the personality" isn't the recipe! <BR/>We humans are pretty funny with our opinions.MyKitchenInHalfCupshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07321041059604871286noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7310300.post-19530237081031709042007-12-12T21:40:00.000-08:002007-12-12T21:40:00.000-08:00I think they are both evil.
