That was worth enduring the Gil Isl jokes. I loved her kitchen. (Wonder if it's really hers.) She lives in Idaho now, I know. WooRah Idaho!! Woopwoop!
That's a neat trick I'd seen before but always forget.

That IS a great trick - just like peeling a hard boiled egg, why wouldn't I have thought to do it on a potato?? And Maryann has always been my favorite, I sure hope that video was scripted and the writers MADE her say those dorky things!! :D

Great tip! We met Dawn several years ago. Our son performed (fiddled) on stage for a local fundraiser, and she happened to be the emcee. What a huge thing for a 10 y/o kid. Won't forget her, or this trick! Thanks, and thanks for the memory :) -Tammy

Hee Hee. First of all. Get out of town, that was a cheese ball and a half! Second! I've never done that before and I'm an Idahoan! Third: I've met her before. She's a cancer survivor and she sponsored the Relay for Life that I participated in. :) Thanks for sharing.
