Top Chef Masters: cooking scrambled eggs for the Quickfire was kind of genius.

Also chatting up Mindy.

That was also smart, yes.

Oh, damn, I forgot I got beets in my CSA box (the sorbet reminded me (I am not going to make them into sorbet)). I need to remember to eat the greens soon. Perhaps in scrambled eggs!

I could never figure out what to do with the greens when I was still getting a CSA.

t on topic I also haven't been able to see BB yet, because it was sports delayed until about 2:30 this morning. I thought about watching just the exit interview, but then I had to go to work.

You are not wrong, about either the ring or the exit interview, Jesse.

Threepeat.

Did any of the other BB watchers get the feeling that the reason they trotted out Dan and the lovebirds was a way of showing that not all houseguests are racist bully perverts?

OK, so I just caught up on LAST week's SYTYCD earlier this week. And I liked a LOT of it, which was awesome...but OMG, it mostly made me go "DAMN, I want to see the show "So You Think You Can Dance With Mark" LOVE HIM.

And now this week's show...finally...

I really liked the opening number! It reminded me some of a Twyla Tharp piece I saw at the ballet, kinda. But so very Cheesman.

Paul: I like this a lot better than most Tasty stuff? That's not a high compliment. But I dig Paul. He's very versatile. I liked his facial expressions during this. Which seems silly, but...yeah. (And I LOVED Comfort last week)

Haley: WTF is Joshua wearing? Otherwise, it was OK. Won't super stand out in my memory.

Fikshun's whole family thing is super cute. And I definitely enjoy him in his solos. And he's so cute. I just don't think he's the best dancer.

Aaron: (aww, yay Melanie) I am somehow not sold on Aaron. I've liked him a lot in a lot of things. And I don't especially love this number. Though I liked her scissor kick lift thing. And then he DROPPED HER. OMG.

Jasmine--I like her solo better than Amy's.

Paul--OK, he's trying in his solo, and started off with some stuff that was better than a lot of the Latin kids can do solo. But wow, those first couple seconds looked super super gay. As in "is he preening before about to go twerk it while hopped up on Ecstasy at the club?" :)

Fikshun: Foxtrot? Oh dear. I don't hate the choreo, and they're making good use of what he CAN do, but oh man do the closed-hold parts look awkward. And there's not much of that. (Wow, he can leap and click his heels high up!)

Hayley: don't love the solo.

Jasmine: Well, he is tall. But oh, the concept. Tasty, I do not want to hear what you think of hurricanes. I think she's pretty lovely in this, but I mostly hate him. Some of that is the choreo, but geez.

Aaron: I don't really love the solo. I keep feeling like his shoulders are weird, now that they keep pointing them out.

Amy: (yay Alex!) At different points I felt like each of them was really killing it, but at a lot of points they didn't seem to be quite together. OTOH, drawing my attention from Alex is pretty impressive! (OW, that knee thing looked painful) Also, I would love to have her abs. Dang, girl. And yes, I was definitely like "eek, don't break the Alex again!!"

Paul/Haley: Why is there something on his wrist in the rehearsal footage? Is he broken too? SHOW! STOP BREAKING DANCERS! I like him, don't like her. WTF is with trying to say people should hook up? So wrong. (Though Paul is definitely a cutie!!)

Amy/Fikshun: Eh

Aaron/Jasmine: This is...not the song I was expecting! OMG how do her legs do that? That just looks unnatural and painful. I do not love this like I want to.

I actually thought Mary said “Dance is just your pole.”

I think she said "pulse"?

I do love JTF. He's hilarious but on point.

Fik-Shun sure is adorable and really stunning in his style, and who really needs to be able to foxtrot in life? I'd love to see him in 6-7 years, with more training. 18 is too young.

Yes. Though he will always be super-short, which limits him. The show really did him a favor not making him dance with tall girls!!

Also, every single time I see him I think that they could do an all-stars version of SYTYCD and he would totally win.

I think I would be rooting for Mark, but America would vote for Alex, and I wouldn't hate too bad. (I WANT TO SEE THIS, FOX)

Did any of the other BB watchers get the feeling that the reason they trotted out Dan and the lovebirds was a way of showing that not all houseguests are racist bully perverts?

I do think they always trot out previous HGs at some point, and Jeff is probably not the best person to represent the good guys? (Not that his shit ever got to tv.)

If we could have seen him handle his big woman (can you imagine him and Jasmine dancing together?) he would have gone up a lot in my estimation, that's for sure.

On I know. It just seemed to me that especially with Dan, the main reason he was there was to bag on Amanda.

As one should
