Reason: mispelled word
I like her because she is just "Ina"...no frills and she looks real.
I mentioned Unwrapped as one of my favorites as it reminds me of when we would go on field trips in elementary school. I so loved the trip we made to Kraft and Holsom bread in Chicago. Those were so interesting, hence, I find the show fascinating to see how things are made.
One thing that does bug me a little is how Ina talks about Jeffrey. I know she is just poking fun but sometimes she treats him like he's an idiot. I guess because my husband is kinda the take charge military guy and I would never talk about him that way. But it's obvious they adore each other, so I am sure she just enjoys teasing him. Just rubs me the wrong way sometimes, depending on what she says.
Well, yes, that does bother me, but a lot less than some of the other food celebrities. They all seem to have a quirk of some sort....from Rachel Ray's Sammies, calling food 'guys', Yumm-o, etc.; Tyler says 'right' quite a bit, Sandra Lee's 'aaaannndd thennn', Guy 'there we go!' and all the ooohhh, ahhhing and very, should we say, sensual(?) sounds Giada and others make after taking a bit of food. I don't recall ever making those sounds after tasting my dishes. Maybe I'm doing something wrong?!
Don't get me wrong, I enjoy many of them. But I do notice the little things for some reason. Is it just me???
