The Next Food Network Star (Food Network)
Baptism by Fire, Interesting Mix, Lack of Flay, Better Pulse
Yowsah! I would not want to be one of the Next Food Network Stars last night. I might rather be something a lot easier .... a skydiver using a reserve chute, Britney Spear's publicity manager, a drug mule crossing the border, a cross-dresser locked up in a Southern jail, Bear Grylls drinking elephant dung in the Kalahari ... Yeah, almost anything would have been easier I think than being a Next Food Network Star contestant on it's opening ... {More...}

One, "Farfalle Pasta with Turkey Sausage, Peas and Mushrooms" was stolen from Giada de Laurentis.

People reported the other day of the birth of Giada De Laurentis' daughter:
"De Laurentiis and husband Todd Thompson welcomed their first child, a healthy baby girl, on Saturday March 29 in Los Angeles," her rep tells People. "Jade Marie De Laurentiis Thompson weighed in at 5lbs, 13oz." The baby is the first for the Food Network star and Today show contributor, 37, and her husband since 2003, Todd Thompson, 44, a clothing designer.

It's been a couple weeks since the Newsday article came out about the beginnings of and current trends of the Food Network ... It's also about a couple weeks before Food Network turns it's eye inward and covers itself in one of it's own Chefography episodes on ... yes, the Food Network. So at this in between time, let's take a peek at that Newsweek article and explore where FN started and is going.
