Watching Rachael Ray

We jumped right into the Dish with Lara Spencer today, as we do every Friday! Today’s theme? Travel gadgets to make your life easier and more fun! First on the list is the Clear Registered Traveler Card - with this, for your $100 you become a member of a network that is pre-screened and approved by the TSA. It holds your information, fingerprints and iris images encrypted on it, and more and more airports are adjusting and upgrading to accept the card - JFK is a big one! It allows you to skip the long security line, and glide right on through. As Lara says “Big Brother is Watching!” You still have to go through security x-ray, but you get to skip the whole line.

Also on the list - an Inflight Power Recharger - plug it into the audio source and it will charge your phone, blackberrys, iPods, etc. It’s FCC-certified and can be used anytime! For $35 it’s a great stocking stuffer! Miss the days of BoomBoxes since the invention of iPods? Now you can get an ImainGo portable speaker system - it’s a mini boombox for your iPod for $40! (Enter to win one here!). Last but not least, Rachael’s addition to the Dish? Cup Couture - stylish sleeves to wrap your coffee cup in on the go!

Next up, Cutie-pie Jerry O’Connell from Carpoolers gives Rachael a spin in a little hybrid car, over to the kitchen table. He admits to having failed his first driver’s test, and that his wife, Rebecca Romijn is the speed demon and he doesn’t like to let her drive. He did, however, sing at the wedding. Of course, it was a ploy to get Vanessa Williams to snatch the microphone away, safe the crowd from his voice, and finish the song that he was too nervous to ask her beforehand to sing. Awwwwww. So now he bows down and thanks her every time he sees her.

Then, our buddy Gretta gives Kimberly, a recently divorced and now dating again viewer update her underwear to help her feel sexy and confident again, as well as showing us some sexy styles to compliment our body type.

And last but not least - a dinner that just may kick the recipe of the year off its pedestal: Chili Dog Chili with Spicy Mustard Cornbread!
