Ooh, from Ted's blog:

It’s been two weeks and I’m still bummed about voting off Tre -- all of the judges thought he was a strong contender to win the whole gonza magilla. (Although I just got some exciting news about Tre today that I can’t publish; just know that good things continue for Chef Wilcox -- I’ll share the news when I can.)

I can't believe the promo saying that the spam and eggs goes perfectly with a Bombay Sapphire cocktail. Seriously??

ha! Bombay Sapphire cocktails go well with EVERYTHING! (If Bravo is to be believed.)

Did anyone watch the Tim Gunn thing after Top Chef? Was it the whole first ep of his show? I thought the premiere was tonight.

It was a sneak peak and I didn't watch it because I had to go watch the Roddick-Federer match. What an excellent night of tennis!

lisah - it was the whole first episode.

I thought it was interesting, similar to the What Not to Wear format, and yet a more, all encompassing approach. At least with this woman. She even met with a life coach. And the gifts on top of the clothes!!! Sign me up!!!!

I DVRed the hour whatever it was. And then couldn't fall asleep because (among other things) I was obsessing about what Tim Gunn would tell me about my fashion and whether, if they came to help me out, if they could also bring a carpenter to redo my effed up room where most of my clothes are. He would be appalled by it!

I didn't watch it because I had to go watch the Roddick-Federer match. What an excellent night of tennis!

I don't watch tennis at all but I'm always pleased when Roddick does well because our parents are friends. Our dads were in the army together.

Seriously? How cool.

He played EXCELLENTLY last night. If he had been playing any other guy in the world he would have won -- but he was playing Federer so - it went to a tie-break in the first two sets - each of which Federer won and then even though Roddick got the first break point - Federer (in the 3rd set) got the first break which put him up enough that Roddick just couldn't catch up. It was good -- but must surely be frustrating for Roddick to be playing the best he has only to lose.

Seriously? How cool.

Our older brothers were crib buddies!

Hee. Crib buddies.

I know! I didn't even watch the show (although I will) and I was telling the SO, "Tim Gunn needs to come and tell me how to dress. I would believe him."

Also, the spam dish was made of awesome! I love that he landed the seafood aisle by luck, but stepped up and made something else.

Glad Howie is gone, at last. I thought they would have just honored his backing out, just like they've done before. But, whatever, I don't care, he's gone! He didn't serve a dish at all in the quickfire and he served lousy dishes at the elim. He was gone, no matter what.

Hung is a nutcase, and from now on I'm going to quote him in smurf. "You closed-minded judges just didn't understand my smurfing vision! I smurfed that challenge and you know it!" Hee! I loved it. Little egg sun.

Oh, and did anyone else not like the guest judge? I thought that it was incredibly rude to look at Hung's dish and say "what the [bleep] is that?" He just kept cussing. It's kind of hypocritical because I'm a potty mouth, but if I were on television, I'd watch my mouth.
