The Delirium Must Be Setting In...

After a long day at the 9to5, with the impending chaos to begin tomorrow on or before 7:00 a.m. til whenever, I decided that since I got home late tonight, a night on the couch was in order. I was cleaning off the Tivo and started to watch Iron Chef America: Holiday Dessert Battle and I've been in a fit of giggles from the get go.

I don't know what is worse:

The Chairman in a Santa Suit;

Paula Dean mixing processed cheese with chocolate to make fudge (Cheese Fudge Balls - are you kiddin' me);

Cat Cora's sous chef in an elf costume;

The Sous Chef telling Tyler Florence to "BITE ME!"

Paula Dean's talking smack;

Robert Irvine's talking smack;

Paula Dean trying to bite Roger Irvine's finger off;

Tyler Florence's sneaking a smooch from Ms. Paula during the heat of battle (and at the end too - kissing bandit, I guess);

Tyler Florence's desecration of the Bush de Noel (Yule Log);

Paula's incorporation of butter into EVERY food item she's making;

Red Hot Marshmallows;

Cat Cora and Paula Dean trying to get their Sandra Lee on and prepping cocktails;

Tina Fey's commentary;

Robert Irvine's panic at the beginning and at the final plating; or

Robert Irvine stripping off the chef's coat hoping to distract the judges with those mammoth arms of his.

The fact that I find Robert Irvine somewhat attractive is now telling me that I need to start hitting the social scene once this project is over. (Hey - I'm a sucker for great arms, 'k)

As much as I watch Iron Chef, I have NEVER seen the chefs have so much fun with each other. Mario was close but this was hilarious - Paula Dean is totally over the top and add her with the other crew, even Cat Cora gets into the mix.

If you love the Food Network, you must see this if it repeats.
