Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Also, Fabio may be suffering from the TC version of the Killer Fatigue.

He did start out saying he wasn't making Italian food, and ended up with pesto ravioli....

Well, at least there wasn't a scallop team.

Because books.

I still like Fabio, though. He's funny and he can be gently snarky in his confessionals, but he's always a gentleman otherwise.

that is a cool word. too bad I will never ever be able to pronounce it.

eh, just go for it. I think that I pronounced schadenfreude wrong for about 5 years, but it was too cool of a word not to use.

He's absolutly my favorite.

I love Fabio. And his whole speech about respecting the animals didn't sound like the usual reality-show playing for the camera.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Top Chef: Yeah, my love-on for Fabio has done nothing but grow. In our house, we like his snark. It doesn't get personal. I think Stefan has even begun to wear on Fabio, because we don't see those two bonding together the way they used to. I definitely think show fatigue has set in now for a lot of the contestants. Restaurant Wars may break them.

I miss Gene! I'm ready for Leah to go, for sure.

Idol: I watched the first episode, but I don't know if I can take it. I think it's just not my show. It should be, but I can't abide its format and judges. Which is pretty much the whole shebang.

Dance Crew: Love! Cannot believe the Heat group survived, but the other all-girl team kicked it. And sytycd's Hok! And crazy cloggers! Gonna be a fun season.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Top Chef: Oh, oh! I forgot to add! I loved that the new judge's "unprotected sex" comment made Tom just blink. Hee!

Art Crawl!!!

Hee.

Man, the more I think about it the worse I feel about this episode. How could they have had such excellent, fresh ingredients and done so poorly? They did better in the quickfire with the processed food!
