Rep Power: 10 | FOOD: ‘Chefography’ week FOOD: ‘Chefography’ week
Food Network junkies probably already know this, but this week the channel is focusing on “chefographies.” Featured chefs include Julia Child, Wolfgang Puck and Duff Goldman and his “Ace of Cakes” crew. MORE HERE |

Rep Power: 10 | Glad to see they are honoring Queen Julia Child...without her, the FN probably would not have been born. Just wish they had more cooking show that had her expertise.

Rep Power: 1 | Watched on "On Demand" with my daughter the Giada De Laurentiis episode.
Really enjoyed it. My daughter said I am like g'dad Dino, asking what to have for dinner while we are still eating breakfast!
Julia Child. A legend. She was a spy for the US during WWII.

Rep Power: 2 | I am eager to see Duff's Chefography. The promo has someone saying that the police knew Duff by name. I don't know why he tries so hard to be a bad boy. I don't think we'll learn that Duff was a member of a tough Baltimore inter-city gang, more likely he was caught spraypainting an old building. Listening to the Baltimore news each night I find it rather difficult to believe the cops were so concerned with Duff when they are up to their necks in real crime.
I like Duff a lot and his fantasy of himself as bad makes me like him even more. On one recent show he was making a big production of snowboarding down a small hill. Soooooo dangerous! Of course, Duff being Duff went two feet and fell off. Duff should be patron saint of awkward boys everywhere. |

Rep Power: 10 | I'll be honest, last night I looked at the clock and it was 7 and I thought 'oh good, I'll turn on good eats'. I turned it on and it was Chefography so I went and found something else to watch.

| Believe what you want, but Duff did a little more than spray paint! High school in Massachusetts was not his shining moment. He was one scary dude with an attitude and a temper. He had his share of scrapes. |

Rep Power: 10 | At least he grew up and put all that energy into something else. He's done an amazing job building a business. |
