  1. I don't know how any of that works either, but I wonder if Michelin-starred restaurants typically hire people who haven't been to culinary school. Has Dylan? I assume not, because I would have thought they wouldn't take culinary school grads on the show. My thinking was also that he made connections on the show.
  2. Alison was saying how she was the first finalist from Wales. (So yes, first winner.)
  3. The version with Two Truths and a Lie confuses me (or one of them? I think there might be more than one of those). The guy says that he has a secret twin, that Geico does something great, and that he can compel trees to bear fruit. Then he says that he made up the twin. So he can make trees bear fruit? Is that just a fancy way of saying he has a green thumb?
  4. Yeah, when they were giving the instructions, I was like, "So a croquembouche?" But once I saw what people were doing, and Georgie said that hers was going to be like a croquembouche, I realized it was more like, "Build something with profiteroles."
  5. I've always thought the worst things were things like grand pianos. What a hassle.
  6. What was also weird was that they did include a shot of Paul pointing at someone's tzatziki, although the audio was him talking about the spanakopita.
  7. I loved that it came after Noel saying she says such mean things but it sounds so pleasant with her accent. I was thinking the same thing. Didn't Rahul or somebody have a bowl explode and they gave them more time?
  8. I'm American, and I got it. I don't have anything to say about it, though.
  9. I still think of that promo every time I hear that song. They also used it in their commercial bumpers.
  10. She said that her parents liked the taste (I assumed they sampled what she practiced), so she was going to trust them even though she didn't like it. And it paid off. What I'm curious about is why she tried it in the first place if she doesn't like the taste.
  11. There was an ad in my area recently that said something similar about a musical act that was coming to town, although I can't remember who it was. I always wondered why they didn't just say that you could come see the people. But since apparently this is a thing, I wonder if it's to reassure people who don't want to fork out money to see an older act play only new stuff that they'll be able to hear the songs they know and love.
  12. I think that "vegan chicken" is fine. It indicates that it's approximating chicken while not being some other meat product made to seem like chicken. "Imitation chicken" could still be meat, the way "imitation crab" is some fish.
  13. Not in the Netherlands, apparently, which is I think the point they were trying to make. (Not saying I agree with the Netherlands's laws.)
  14. My great aunt lived in place that wasn't assisted living, more like a step down from that. One night she woke up to someone standing over her bed and it scared the crap out of her. She had knocked the phone off the hook in the middle of the night, and if someone's phone was off the hook for a certain amount of time, they'd send a nurse to check on them, so it was a nurse, not an axe murderer.
