Whew! Yes, we both like to cook, and Jason is the creme' brulee guy. Have you tried to make it yet? We don't have a torch to caramelize the sugar--his recipe does it with powdered sugar under the broiler. It works well! We haven't had that in about a year . . . must get to nagging . . . :-) He bought me a Lindt chocolate bar with creme' brulee filling for my birthday, which we are eating one square at a time.

I won't listen to the stuff you wouldn't approve of. :) Allison – sorry…in my mind I knew you guys liked to cook (your husband’s the creme brulee guy, right?) and so I just meant it from that “foodie” point of view.

Just a disclaimer there. We do like watching the talent--the creativity! In past seasons, they've had to make something from what they could buy at a convenience store or out of a vending machine. That's fun to watch. I made a recipe once from a past season that I liked very much--a roasted red pepper soup. Good stuff.

I'll have to get my hands on the previous seasons. I love watching what they come up with in those time constraints. It also had me inspired to do some cooking this week...tonight's was "Balsamic Chicken with Baby Spinach and Couscous." I'll let you imagine what parts of that meal the 4 year old ate. :) Linda - Good job.

It's a Wednesday night ritual at our house--we come home from Awana and watch. I believe this is season five, and we've been faithful watchers all five seasons. Beware, though--it can make you hungry! Since no one else has commented and you might be sad . . . :-) I love Top Chef too!
