    What happened to your daily videos of your television program that used to be on your website. Whenever I missed the program, I would watch it on the computer. I enjoy watching your programs.

    While cooking the stew, you turn the heat down and say that you don’t want the garlic and onion “too dark and golden”, and then in one breath you add “getting that golden caramelization on the onions is a great idea”. For Christ’s sake, lady, could you decide? Or simply shut up sometimes? I have enough of your sensless blabber.

    Another thing. One of “too, too” many. 🙂 You start to heat the oil in order to fry the fritters. And you heat it and heat it, while you make the batter and slice all the vegetables, which takes ages. And then you say that the batter has to rest for 10 minutes. Are you going to continue to heat the oil for this additional 10 minutes? Good luck… Hopefully it will explode and Martha takes you off the air, suing for damages.
