    I've never seen it mentioned, but the Discovery Channel has a pretty
    good cooking lineup on Tuesdays with Cookin' in Brooklyn, License to
    Grill, and Kylie Kwong for a change from Food TV.

    Cookin' in Brooklyn?? I've never heard of this
    show. I must look into it, it sounds wonderful!
    I also agree with a previous poster that bringing
    back repeats of The Two Fat Ladies would be very
    enjoyable.

    I would like to see more reuns of the old Galloping Gourmet show when Kerr
    was tipsy and silly. It was much more interesting that the new health
    conscious stuff he does.

    I have never even heard a whiff of an idea that Galloping Gourmet was a
    pedophile. Are you sure you aren't confusing him with Frugal Gourmet?

    Has to be. I've been a fan of Kerr's since the Galloping Gourmet show
    and there's never been a whiff of that sort of scandal about him.

    The lycanthrope is confused about any number of things, many of them
    unpleasant.

    OBFood: Grilled steak for dinner tonight. Scrambled okra and slaw on
    the side. I tried to make sweet potato oven fires, but the turned out
    limp. Tasty, but limp.

    I've seen okra in the store but never cooked it. I'm assuming its a
    veggie.....but have never bought it............do you scramble - as in
    eggs???

    I wash and take the head off okra then split it in quarters lengthwise
    and sauté it with a sprinkling of spices. I serve it as a side with
    meat. Otherwise, I can sauté it and add it to pilafs or couscous.

    Yup, it's a veggie. Nope, I don't scramble it like eggs. I took to
    calling it that after an article in Saveur magazine used the term.
    Before that I just cooked it. I use an iron skillet and gently sizle
    it over medium heat (with olive oil) till the slime is reduced and the
    okra caramelizes. It takes about an hour or maybe less.

    My god wolfie, you can be such a bloody idiot. You should consider thinking
    before you speak or do a little research before you make an ass of yourself
    publicly. Maybe even a short course in reading comprehension might be helpful.
    You must be thinking of Jeff Smith, The Frugal Gourmet. Please not the
    difference between the names Graham Kerr and Jeff Smith and between The
    Galloping Gourmet and The Frugal Gourmet. Kerr hosted a cooking show back in
    the late 60's and early 70s.

    Are you confused, or just an idiot? Graham Kerr and Trina are
    "born-again" Christians and health nuts - with no scandalous past that
    I've ever heard of.

    You'll have to pardon the wolf. He has rarely been known to demonstrate
    much in the way of informed opinion.

    There was nothing scandalous that I ever heard of. It is just that he was
    either half cut during his shows or else he was acting drunk and silly. I
    learned a lot from his shows as he suggested the importance of cooking with
    various styles, which made things easier than trying to cope with specific
    recipes. He was entertaining and informative. Somewhere along the way he
    found religion and lost his charm, IMO.

    My god wolfie,

    I thought God was outlawed in Canada? Be careful I don't want the royal

    My god wolfie,

    And I thought that you were a moron. You are (once again) wrong about God being
    outlawed, but just proved me right about you being a morn for suggesting it.

    Slime - what slime? This doesn't sound pleasant at all.

    Your loss. How does one get to be presumed adult
    age without ever having eaten such a common
    vegetable (or even knowing it IS a vegetable?)

    I can appreciate that. I saw the listing for his new show and checked it out
    because I used to enjoy the Galloping Gourmet shows. It was entertaining and
    very informative, and that was back in the days when there were very few cooking
    shows on television.

    You're forgetting Bruno Gerussi's cooking show, Celebrity Cooks.

    Bwahaha...Wolfie thinks God is outlawed in Canada?? He's been
    listening to those vacuous pinheads at Fox News Network again. Just
    for the record, the usual suspect is mentioned in the English version
    of the national anthem:

    God keep our land glorious and free!
    O Canada, we stand on guard for thee.

    but not in the French version (which was the original version as
    well) as it is an ultramontane manifesto. The English one relied
    more heavily on the birds, the bees and the farces of nature.
