It was
announced today that
Giada De Laurentiis,
Bobby Flay,
Ina Garten, and
Nigella Lawson (and their respective shows) are nominated for Daytime Emmy Awards. Congratulations!
Ina, Bobby, Giada, and Nigella (and PBS' Todd English) are ALL up for
Oustanding Lifestyle Host! I hope Ina pulled a few strings, as I'd love to see her win. Or even just attend the awards. I'll be your date, I! You know Jeffrey will be busy.

Missing from the nominations list was Paula Deen, who actually won twice last year. Gotta step it up, P!
And lest I forget,
even Aunt Sandy managed to get into the nominatin' pool.... kinda.

That's right,
Semi-Hommemade Cooking with Sandra Lee is nominated for
Outstanding Achievement in Hairstyling--and she's competing against peeps at
The View and
The Price is Right!
I don't think they're working too hard on Drew Carey's hair these days, but I guess "Carey's Beauties" (just doesn't have the same ring as "Barker's Beauties") are included in the mix. Now that Star Jones is gone from
The View, I'm sure the hairstylists' jobs are much easier.
Should Bobby take this as a jab at his hair?

Probably.
Congrats to all the nominees! I'm pullin' for yah, Sandra!
