I made Kerrie lunch (a nice Turkey, Swiss & Avocado wrap with Coarse Salt and Pepper) and checked Fark. I got some coffee going and looked up a recipe for Honey Lavender Ice Cream and just by luck, I noticed a pic in a banner of Anthony Bourdain. Turns out that he has a NEW show on the Travel Channel called No Reservations. This made The Jay very happy...
Bourdain is amazing. Funny thing is that he's an ex-junkie asshole who thinks quite highly of himself, but knows the business on every level. While the rest of the sheep are completely amazed by Emeril and his glorious stunt food, Bourdain has been running a classic French bistro in NYC while traveling the world drinking Vodka with mobsters and eating still-beating Cobra hearts. The man is insane, but he knows his shit....

Bourdain is the shit! I can't wait to see his new show! I always thought it'd be cool to do what Bourdain does, but only on a smaller scale with a nice little bistro downtown mackinac island ;)
Did I also mention that there will be a Fox sitcom based on Bourdain's book "Kitchen Confidential" coming out in September? If not, you're all on notice...
