Tonight on Top Chef All Stars - COOKIES!!

Tonight's Quickfire Challenge sounds like a blast - create a cookie for the Cookie Monster and two others from the Sesame Street Gang. Including some newbie named "Elmo" (I hear he likes to be tickled - FREAK!). Yeah, I'm old-school - when I was a young whipper-snapper there was no such thing as an "Elmo". We had to make due with Grover, that damn Count (I always hated math), Big Bird, "best friends" (that's ALL!) Bert & Ernie and - my favorite - Cookie Monster. He was the original binge eater...

NOM NOM NOM NOM NOM ...

Later, the Cheftestants have an after-hours Soup Party at Tarjay. Or something:

Don't forget to watch tonight at 10:00 pm EST on Bravo - and look for my recap sometime tomorrow afternoon.

Today’s Show Is Brought To You By The Number 38 & The Letter Double-D

I simply adore Amy Poehler and Maya Rudolph. Here they are on last night's SNL with Katy Perry - poking fun at Perry's recent Sesame Street controversy.

BREAKING: Sesame Street's Bert Comes Out!

I always knew Bert was a big 'ole "Mo"...

OK ... maybe not.

Sesame Street Turns 40

Yesterday was Sesame Street's 40th anniversary. And since I'm 42 years old, Sesame Street is the show I identify most with my childhood. In fact, I'm almost positive that everything I ever needed to know I learned from Sesame Street, Mr. Rogers Neighborhood and Schoolhouse Rock.

I LOVED the entire cast ... Bob, Gordon, Maria ... and ESPECIALLY Luis, the Handyman (below)...


Aye, Papi!

I also loved Oscar the Grouch. His song, I Love Trash, became the anthem that will forever describe my dating life...

Does anyone remember THIS song, which was first shown on Sesame Street in 1969 - and later became the very first song performed on The Muppet Show? Here is the original Sesame Street version...

However, there WERE a couple of things that pissed me off about Sesame Street as a child. First of all, HOW IN THE HELL DID NOBODY SEE SNUFFLELUPAGUS (except Big Bird) UNTIL 1985?!? That drove me INSANE as a child.


And, finally, I never liked the annoying Count Von Count. Math was never my thing...


Happy Anniversary Sesame Street!
