Food Diva Smack-Down/Throw-Down Old Fashion Rasslin'-Match! Did You See It?

I'm not a big fan of Martha Stewerts but I am a fan of a couple of her shows on PBS. Everyday Food and Everyday Baking. She doesn't cook or bake on either of the programs. I'm really glad of that, lol. She reminds me to much of my mother.

Martha Stewart has always reminded me of my mother in law.

I have nothing negative to say against Rachel other than she just doesn't reach me, personally. BUT, she does reach MANY and that's the point. She has definite high worth and value.

Martha? No one challenges her genius or Queendom at all- but she should have stayed the good & kind mentor and remained above it all. To me- that's her ONE draw-back... she's just sometimes puts up a barrier that she appears to wish others to remain on the other side of. She creates distance and often is less than generous and charitable in her ways.

One thing to remember too- Martha's book and tv products ARE absolutely fantastic- BUT, they're likely rarely the product of JUST Martha- rather, it's Martha- and her unlimited resources- including a staff of a THOUSAND.

Her convict experience doesn't negatively impact my feelings about her, whatsoever. The way they made an example of her had me so fired-up. Hell- if I'd have lived near her prison I'd have baked her a bundt w/ a file hidden in it!

As a Martha-lover, I guess what irks me most about her is so often her misbehavior leads her staunch supporters to feel they must defend her in the face of some really awful stuff. Cool it, Martha! We like liking you- but sometimes you make it so hard!

Maybe every time she decided to speak she should hold her tongue and first ask: "WWJD?" ("What Would Julia <Child> Do?" Julia was far too classy to ever have put her foot in her mouth in such a manner.)

So, we're all sitting around the table this afternoon and a couple of us start talking about the big "Martha-stuck-her-foot-in-her-mouth incident". My cousin's 9 yr. old boy screams: "well, looky there- Martha's gonna beat out Kanye for dummest thing said all year long!"
