"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

There is still at least one contestant I expected to go first.

Because books.

Me, too, sj. But it's going to be tough to decide between my top three.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Anyone else see Food Flirts on PBS? I can't believe this got picked up to be a national show! The Brass sisters are local institutions, and at least one of them worked at WGBH for decades.

I just saw a promo for it the other night! It looks sort of adorable.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

For GBBS, the semi-final and the final are being combined this Friday - it'll be a two-hour show, starting earlier than usual (warning so you can set your DVRs).

And I think they're starting to get a little ... odd? ... with their themes. Tudors? really? I halfway expected pies filled with headcheese ....

I liked the Tudor theme.

I didn't mind it. I'm actually kind of interested in trying to make the jumbles.

SYTYCD -still tired of the "woo"ing from the all-stars.

Also, Jenna's dance with Concrete just had a sense of "white girl taming the savage" to it. Just me?
