I like Rachael Ray. :)
I like Rachel Ray too, but I love Wolfgang Puck's restaurant too!
His pastas are divine.
Too many good ones to choose from, but I'd go with Rachael Ray too.
I love Paula Deen, she is a hoot! Please enter me to win. I could use that garbage bowl for compost scraps!!
Great giveaway. My husband rolls his eyes every time I turn on Food Network (which is often). I like the practicality of Rachel Ray's cooking but I also love the style of Giada's show.
I love a lot of the shows on the food network.
Throwndown with Bobby Flay, Unwrapped, Good Eats. I'm a fan of it all!
My favorite chef is my husband, because when he cooks, it means I don't have too. :)
I really like Tyler's Ultimate! Thanks, I'd love to win. :D

My favorite chef is Anthony Bourdain--although you never see him cook on tv. I love his sense of humor. I also love Mario Batali and watch all the Food Network cooking challenges. I missed getting a RR garbage bowl in her latest sweep so I would love to win one here. Thanks.
I like Rachael Ray. I have been watching her since late December and have learned SO much. I love all of her recipes.

I like Alton Brown.. he's quirky and fun. Of course I like Jamie Oliver for his daring creativity and Bobby Flay for his humor and challenges. Oh I like Paula Deen's comfort food and RR's realness.
All that and I don't even have cable!
signing up!
I have a lot of favourite chefs and really enjoy watching the cooking shows on PBS and FoodNetwork. I enjoy Tyler Florence, Todd English, Wolfgang Puck, anybody from America's Test Kitchen...my list could go on and on.
I would love to be entered in your giveaway.

My husband and I enjoy Iron Chef America. I'd love to be a judge on that show!
I'm sorry to say that I don't watch cooking shows, although when Rachael Ray shows up on Today or Oprah, I love watching her. The fact I don't watch these shows is why I could really use the cookbook. I need some serious help;) Thanks for offering!
I'm hosting three contests. Stop by!
If you can believe it, we don't have FOOD NETWORK on our directv. UGH. But my dad is an Emeril fan, a Paula Deen fan, a Rachael Ray fan...well, he kinda likes them all! ;)
I love rachael ray.. and there were these old english ladies.. omg i so cannot remeber their names.. but I Loved them!!
I am running a bloggy party right now too with tons of prizes! Come check us out!

It's Rachel Ray and this is one cookbook we don't have.
Paula Deen-- lovely giveaway! Thank you.
I love to watch Barefoot Contessa! Please enter me in the contest.

Rachael Ray. I so want to win this giveaway. I have been wanting both of these. :)
There are so many shows on The Food Network, that I love! Rachel Ray, of course! Diners, Drive In's & Dives, Iron Chef America, Dinner Impossible & I could keep going, lol.
I love Paula Deen, her food always makes my mouth water! Thanks for the giveaway.
Hard to pick a favorite - Rachael Ray for quick/easy, but Paula Deen for comfort food recipes and that accent! :-)
I'd love to win this; I always think how convenient that garbage bowl looks, perched on her countertop.

I love Paula Deen!
Rachel Ray is my favorite! I recently made her Whole Wheat Penne with Cauliflower sauce and my whole family loved it (including the kids)! Thanks for the giveaway. Please enter me!
Come enter mine for $25 for ebay!
Rachel Ray is growing on me... my Tivo keeps recording her show as one of the suggestions, and everytime I watch one of them, I like her a little more. Paula Deen is probably my favorite though-- she's hilarious!
I love the Barefoot Contessa
I would love this! thanks so much!
We love Alton Brown and Good Eats at our house. He does a great job explaining the science behind cooking!
Thanks for the great giveaway.
mnatherson(at)comcast(dot)net
Okay, I found my way to your blog simply because I love your Blog title...mmmm...cupcakes! I love to watch Ace of Cakes but I don't think that I would ever eat one of his cakes, they have been overly handled! I do enjoy watching Paula Dean, I love her down home cooking and her accent BUT it drives me nuts when she licks her fingers!!!!!!!!!!
I would have to probably say Giada because I'm a huge fan of Italian!!
I have three answers...favorite recipes - Paula Deen, favorite to watch - Giada, favorite daytime show - Rachael Ray! mengels[at]hotmail[dot]com
I love how pretty and bright your blog is!
I am really just getting into cooking. I love Rachel Ray and think of my grandpa's cooking when I see Paula Dean!
This would be a awesome prize to win!
I like watching Rachel Ray as well.
Paula Dean is my fav!
I love watching the Iron Chef competitons!
Rachel Ray has great recipes, love her!
A better question would be who I don't like. :) I do enjoy Paula Deen & Rachel Ray.
I have to say Rachel Ray is one of my favorites, I love how happy she seems. I also like Alton Brown, not sure of spelling, but I always seem to learn something from his show.
the naked chef on bbc america is my favorite..yummy
I don't have cable to watch unfortunately, but I love Rachel Ray's cookbooks!
Racheal Ray 30 minute meals :)
When I get to watch, Rachel Ray is who I go to :)
Good Eats is my favorite food network show. Alton Brown not only shows you some good recipes, he explains the why of certain techniques. I love learning about the science behind cooking!
I love Rachael Ray. She's a good style fit with me.

Hi there Miss Marilyn,
I LOVE Paula Dean! That girl cooks with love.
This is so much fun. I hope I did it right-hehe.
Take care,
Barb
I like Cat Cora...I could really use this because my hubby broke my GB last week. Great giveaway! Count me in. bebemiqui82(at)yahoo(dot)com
We like Alton Brown. Love the mix of cooking and science.
rachael Ray and paula dean
Rachel or Paula- they are both great!
We like Duff of Ace of Cakes, and also the wedding cake challenge.
I really like Unwrapped, but I don't have cable, so I can't watch Food Network very often.
Why would I be here if I didn't love Rachael Ray!
This would be perfect. I need a new cookbook and the garbage bowl is also needed. No more piles on my too limited counter space!
I love to watch Good Eats! I've always wanted to try out some of RR's recipes, though, so this book would be a great start!
Not a big Rachel Ray fan, but I'd love to give her recipes a try. Maybe she can redeem herself. Haha.
corrinrenee.com
I was born and raised in the south so Paula Deen has a special place in my heart - she's not afraid to use "cream of anything" soups!
Alas, we no longer get the food network. I think I'd like Paula Dean if we did. Or the McNeeleys (?). But I'll always have a place in my heart for the first cooking show I ever watched on a regular basis: The Frugal Gourmet. Jeff made it look so easy I was duped into thinking I could do it, too. Eventually I did, but boy did we make some messes on the way :-)
i like bobby flay or paula deen...or all of them :)
My favorite show to watch and dvr on the food network is Diners,Drive-ins and Dives.
Paula Deen!
Rachel Ray by far!
:)
ndisilvio@gmail.com
I like Alton Brown, but my favorite is when they have The Next Food Network Star. It's very fun to watch.
I like Paula Dean and Rachel Ray. They're both so down to earth.
claireroach81(at)hotmail(dot)com
:::sniff sniff:::
I watch NO food/cooking shows as all we have is an antennae on our TV that picks up a few fuzzy local channels. BUT I love to try new recipes for my family!
Enter me, please!
Blessings,
Tammy ~@~
I like Chef Duff and Rachael Ray. I especially like her travel show on the Food Network. I can't remember what it's called.
I LOVE Rachael Ray!! I just bought her pots and pans set. I NEED her garbage bowl!!
Ohhhh....this is a hard one! I love the Iron Chef and I adore Bobby Flay too!
Oh boy!!! I would love to win! Pick me, pick me, pick me...

Alton Brown!
But I like RR too.
I enjoy Rachel Ray's show. mymadakaja at gmail dot com.
Rachael Ray is my very favorite!What a great giveaway! Please enter me in your drawing! Thanks!
My favorite was a special. It was the top 5 cake decorators and they were at Disney world having a contest on who made the best Princess cake. It was amazing!
Giada is my favorite, and Rachael is my next favorite. They both have completely different styles!
Alton Brown, since he's super smart & Rachael Ray, since she's very personable. The cookbook is great, but adding the garbage bowl is so neat! I'd love to win! Thank you for the chance =)
Rachel Ray is my favorite because she cooks with food I have in my house and it's fast!!!
princesslimey(at)gmail(dot)com
I like watching Ace of Cakes, (they are truly artists with pastry)and Tyler's Ultimate. Awesome giveaway, thanks!
I love to watch "Iron Chef America" and "Throwndown with Bobby Flay". My son likes Emeril and wants to be a Chef like him (he's only 6). Thanks for the great giveaway!
I'm drooling! Rachael Ray is my all-time FAVORITE! My birthday is next month and I've asked for this garbage bowl, maybe I can win it! :)
Good Eats is my favorite! Fun and a wealth of information.
Thank you for doing this giveaway.
Tiffany Rosson

I like Rachael Ray as well.
thanks for the great giveaway
I don't have cable, but whenever I'm housesitting or what-have-you, I always watch Iron Chef... that show is amazing.
I LOVE Rachael. Alton Brown is very interesting too. I also enjoy Jamie Oliver, and not just because he is called the naked chef!!
First off my name is Kimberly (Matthew is my son). My favorite show is Ace of Cakes. Duff's laugh is SOOOOOOOO cute!!!!!!!
I can be reached at hunnyv at optonline dot net. THANKS!
Rachael Ray as she is down to earth. She give great advise and I can make everything she makes with food from my local grocery. Also the food is reasonable in cost.
We do love RR, but I think Paula Deen is our favorite. Of course, we really like Emeril, too.
:) Not a very decisive bunch over here.
This would be amazing! I would love to use this for my graduation party!
What a lovely blog this is! Well, I'm going to have to say Paula Deen is my fave. I'd just sit and listen to her talk, even if she wasn't cooking anything. Thanks for the fab giveaways! -Julia :-)

I think Paula Deen is my favorite and I like Ina Garten too. Thanks for the chance to win!
Tyler Florence has been my favorite for years, but lately I've been loving Bobby's throwdown too.
I don't have one....sniff, sniff, waaaah! But I do love Top Chef! :) I know, that is Bravo, not Food Network, but it does prove that I like food. And I'd love to win this so I could see that I would love Rachel Ray just as much as Top Chef, and then I could go watch her instead. ;)

I like the food challenge shows with the 4 or 5 different teams. My favorite chef is Bobby Flay.
Rachel Ray is definitely my fav, but I love Paula Dean as well. Both of them have infectious laughter, and GREAT recipes.
~ Amy @ Memoirs of a Mommy
paula dean...seriously, who wouldn't love things with so much butter! (but rachael is great as well!)

Great prize; thanks! We like many of the shows on the Food Network, but I'd have to choose Alton Brown and Good Eats as the absolute favorite. (My DH might say Diners etc. with Guy Fieri, though.)
I like Iron Chef! I'd love to win this.
I like Rachael Ray, and Paula Deen, but my absolute favorite I think, has to be Alton Brown and "Good Eats". OH! I also LOVE watching "The Ace of Cakes". Oh! I also like "Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives". I guess there's SO many that I really like...it's hard to name just one.
Rachel Ray, Paula Dean, Semi-Homemade, and Iron Chef. The come up with some weird stuff!
Alton Brown with "Good Eats" and Rachel's Rays 30 Minutes Meals are my two favorites. Thanks for a great giveaway.
I enjoy Rachael Ray too, but I also really like Paula Deen, she is so loveable!
Fun giveaway!
My favorite show on Food Network is the Iron Chef Challenge and Rachael Ray 30 minute meals.
I'm not a big Food Network fan (mostly 'cause I don't cook). But DH loves it, so I watch a lot. I like Rachel Ray and Sandra Lee.
I think Paula Deen is great! I'd love for her to come to my house and cook for me.
fourkidsrgreat(at)gmail(dot)com

Oh gosh...Paula Deen, Giada, and Rachael Ray are my top picks...and Alton Brown. I'd better stop now!
Oh man, I don't have cable...But I love Rachael Ray, her show on NBC is great!
I love Paula Dean and Ina Garten (Barefoot Contessa) and Giada and Rachael Ray! I love em all. Thanks for the opportunity to get my very own garbage bowl - I just use one I have, but would love one like she has! Thanks again!
