Breathe In… Breathe Out
Taken at Edwards Gardens in Toronto this weekend.
So…
Who watches MasterChef and/or MasterChef Canada?
Anybody?
I can’t look away. They’re my cooking crack.
It’s MasterChef Canada season, and I got to thinking the other day. I do that sometimes. Think for no reason at all.
You’re riveted, right?
What I was thinking was…
If I could pick any fictional characters for a season of MasterChef Canada, who would they be?
It’s been weighing heavily on my mind for the last 72 hours. Okay, while I was raking the back garden yesterday.
Here are my top five.
- Neelix from Star Trek Voyager. The man knows what to do with an alien root vegetable. The more toxic the better. The Mystery Box Challenge would be no challenge for Neelix.
- Marilla Cuthbert from Anne of Green Gables. The woman’s got some serious plum puff game, so I figure she could give Christina Tosi of MasterChef a baking happy.
- Remy from Ratatouille. He has a passion for zee French cuisine that could make him a MasterChef contender.
- Carrie Bradshaw from Sex and the City. The woman uses her oven to store sweaters. Someone has to be eliminated in the first round.
- Mrs. Patmore from Downton Abbey. She knows her way around period appliances that don’t even work. Patmore would totally kill a Restaurant Takeover Challenge. She’s in charge.
Now, you. Give me one fictional character — book, tv series, or movie — that you would like to see as a contestant on MasterChef or MasterChef Canada.
Go!
And Monday is in the house.
Grab it and hang on.

I would be riveted if Daffy Duck was the emcee. I know, I’m ‘desh-picable’. By the way, i don’t know any of those shows… Isn’t it ‘Downton’, not ‘Downtown’??? Just sayin’…

LOL on the Daffy Duck. Well, you should Google those shows, Steve. Have a little peek. Thanks for catching the Downton typo. It’s not like the post hadn’t been through several edits. Dammit. Fixed. I needed the raking breather. 😀

And I’ve never seen an episode but our daughter (the expert in stuff British…drives me nuts) corrected us. If you didn’t see my latest story, please take a gander and let me know if it sucked. Heck, even my biggest fan (ok, my sister) didn’t comment at all. Actually., im starting to think that it did suck. It’s ‘The Barre Chronicles…’. Be honest, I was in sales for my career so I can take rejection. 😜

Hahahaha, Steve. I’ll be right over there as soon as I get some decent word count in for the day. Might be tomorrow. Some of what I thought was my best post work turned out to be the biggest dud readership-wise. And vice versa. I’ve yet to figure it out. But we all write the suck now and again. Sometimes repeatedly. Raises hand. Cheers.

I nominate Vianne Rocher from Chocolat. That woman can do wonders with chocolate, turning it into exactly what everyone needs it to be.

Ally — What an excellent choice. Her ‘tude and skills would be perfect for MasterChef. Loved that movie.

That was a true LOL, Maggie. Wilma is definitely a home cook contender. Thanks. I’m partial to #4 myself. 🙂

I nominate Spike from the movie Notting Hill. His inability to discern the difference between yogurt and mayonnaise would allow Carrie Bradshaw to make to the 2nd round.

I’m laughing so hard right now, Robin. Perfect choice. And either one could be the dark horse for the win! 😀
