sunshine and rope swings

evoo for life...

so it's always been my quest to be rachel ray and to drive a mini-cooper.

rachel ray is facilitating my love for her through all of her new endeavors. and then, last month, there was the client who told me that i was just like rachel ray (over-whelming optimism, smiling, etc). now i know those "you look just like....you could pass for..." comments are never accurate. but i could not have been more happy to hear some celebrity's name than i was to hear rachel ray. :) for those friends of mine who find her overly annoying....sucks to be friends with me, huh..

anyway - so i was exploring her website and found a Q&A with her -- i've found some similarities already....plus, we've already got the wusthof knives so i'm already on the way to becoming her, right??? :)

Q: You and your husband, John, seem to lead such busy lives. Is it tough for the two of you to find quality time at home together?
-Connie Hainan, Stone Mountain, GA

A: We find the time at night. We have many late suppers-we're both night owls!

Q: Are there any TV shows that you never miss?
-Kasee Schewe, Blooming Prairie, MN

A: The HBO shows Entourage, Curb Your Enthusiasm and The Sopranos are at the top of my rotating list of favorites, plus any and all versions of Law & Order, especially Law & Order: Criminal Intent (this includes all the reruns-which I could recite every word of by now). I also like those goofy talent shows Last Comic Standing and America's Got Talent.

Q: What would you like to be doing 20 years from now?
-Won il Chang, Burnaby, British Columbia, Canada

A: I don’t plan. My life has come out better, so far, than I ever imagined! I just work hard and go with the flow!

Q: What are your hours like on an average workday?
-Robbin Nelson, Houston, TX

A: I have no average day. I used to work in kitchens, doing 12 or more hours a day of physical labor, so today, eight to 12 hours of cooking, chatting or filming feels like a vacation. When I have a scheduled “day off,” I spend several hours writing, then I clean until I crash from fatigue. I don’t relax well. Even if I were unemployed, I’d be a hard worker.

Q: What’s your favorite perfume?
-Tammy Eady, Pell City, AL

A: Maybe Baby, by Benefit. It just smells clean. But most perfumes make me sneeze, so there are few that I can actually tolerate. I gotta tell ya, most of the time I just smell like soap and whatever deodorant I bought that week.
