Catching up from Fire Central, in California!

No worries so far, though, the skies are gloriously clear, and smoke free where I’m at. Hopefully that will continue, and I won’t end up helping everyone evacuate. Not that I’d mind helping, I’d just rather they not be in danger, right? Right!

So, what’s been happening in Rachael Ray’s world since I last checked in? On Thursday, October 18th, Jeff Probst (or as I like to call him, Mr. Dimples!) stopped by and was put through the spin cycle on the hyman gyroscope by Rach before talking a bit about Survivor: China and some of the challenges he faced while filming.

Being the first America show to ever film an entire season in China, just getting there was difficult and it was discovered that while you can fake Spanish? There is no faking Mandarin! Jeff spent time in China afterwards, and said it was the first time he just wasn’t ready to leave after filming – he even slept on the Great Wall of China one night. “It was spectacular!”

After getting all the dish with Jeff Probst, Rachael talked with a viewer and her mother in law about concerns of the mother regarding her little girl. Life coach Harriette Cole tries to help them find some common ground, with mutual respect for how the granddaughter will be raised, with a little give and take from both of them. Shannon felt like she had to be perfect all the time, while her mother in law, Sharon, assures her that’s not the case. Good news, says Rachael “all you have to do is go home, wash your face and put sweat pants on!”

What’s for dinner? Wayne Brady stops by to help Rachel in the kitchen where she makes BBQ Chicken Sloppy Joes with Cheesy Waffle Fries!
