A Thank You and Food Network Star Update
October 24, 2008
OK… 1.) I feel TONS better. Thank you SO much for your comments. I think part of me just had to post that as some kind of therapy. :~)
This morning I hit the gym and worked my arse off for 2 hours. Boy does that do wonders for the soul too. :~)
Now, on this this Food Network Star update.
Amy let me know my video was up The Next Food Network Star page. I had NO idea! LOL
I’m super excited about this as I really thought my chances were over after the casting call! But now I have some renewed hope!
I hate to ask a favor but please, PLEASE check out the video and if you feel so inclined leave a comment on their site (there’s an area under the video). Maybe I can get their attention if it’s viewed a lot?? Right? I figure it’s worth a shot! RIGHT? :~)
Ok, I’m off to the shower to dream about TV stardom! HA! Oh! and I just posted a quick idea on GreenLiteBites, Ramen Noodle "Chili". So YUMMY and SO full for 6 points!

Done! Good luck, Roni! And I was sorry to hear about your cookbook. :-( That’s an awful feeling. I’ll still be lining up to buy a copy when it’s done, though!

I put the post below on the Food Network site for you:
“Roni is daring and confident. She fills a much needed gap in the food TV world which is REALITY. I have been following her on her GreenLiteBites site and I think she is a combination of Semi-Homemade, Quick Fix and Down Home but very healthy. I have made several of her recipes and her “toddler-tested, toddler-approved” seal of satisfaction is right on every time.”

I commented on the video for you. I must say it was REALLY hard to keep my opinion down to 500 words and I had to edit a lot out. You are a great inspiration and keep it REAL!
Thanks for all you do.

Hi Roni,
I left a comment for you on the Food Network Star site. I actually made those butternut squash fries with dinner tonight so it was funny to see that you had chosen to make them for your audition. I learned how to make them from your very first video and I still love them!
Good luck Roni, you have a lot of support and people cheering for you.

I posted a comment on the Food Network video. I wish you good luck with that venture with mixed feelings. If we share you with the Food Network, we’ll probably lose you in here. :/ All the same, Good Luck Roni! I’ll be watching for you!
