YouTube freaks me out
So, as someone pointed out to me the other day, this clip from my ignonimous Iron Chef appearance has been making the YouTube rounds. I think it's pretty cute, but clearly I've got a face for radio, as the brilliant commentors so like to point out...

LOL!! I have not been keeping up with Iron Chef, but that is just hilarious. Definitely worth watching twice!
I do like that show, but I don't have cable. Since I noticed the video you mentioned on YouTube, I thought I'd ask if you would like to be a contributing writer on my blog.

Oh my...oh my... too funny :)

I like the fact that you made such a big splash from such a small role. Well done!
ha! the expression on jeffrey steingarten's face was the best part.
well done!
ewww, the comments on youtube are obnoxious. guess the fact that the p word is in the title makes for "interesting" readers. i'm almost done reading your julie and julia book which i'm loving. you've inspired me to start cooking in the kitchen. and not just the easy heat-up kinds of food. thanks for being you!
Face for radio? That's bullshit. You're beautiful! Perfect!
P.S. I posted your pea-ness on my blog.
Awww, no worries, it's funny and I like that you kept your composure and didn't try to correct yourself. Pretty immature of the other woman... don't know what else went on after, so whatever.
BTW, I'd read your book a while back on rec from a friend.... you inspired me a bit. Thanks.
The "face for radio" comments on YouTube are just ignorant. Pay them no attention (I should have commented last time).
How long did you spend thinking about "pea-ness" before you used it?
oh my god, that was you? I saw that clip on Best Week Ever!
Hey, I saw that episode of Iron Chef! I had no idea it was you!
And by the way, you do not "have a face for radio" I thought you looked very nice, the blue color you were wearing suites you.
I'm going to have to use the word "peaness" with my 5th graders and see what they make of it. :P

I'm sure the nearly literate hate monkeys leaving mean comments are just 12 yr old boys with no social life. Or moronic right-wingers - same difference.
Keith Olbermann featured the clip during his "Oddball" segment on Countdown awhile back....sorry, I forget which day!
have you seen the one that someone did about the "bone marrow" incident from your book? I posted it on my blog review of your book. (i LOVED it by the way - so sad i missed the project live.)
it's kind of funny but if i were you, and i didn't create it, it might just freak me out.

I loved that clip, and happened to see it live and my two sons -- little gourmands they are -- laughed along with me and now since they didn't notice you were eating peas, it seemed even more hilarious to them!
Ignore those pea-brained folks who talk about faces for radio. They have brains for Booby-Trap (remember that 1960s game??)
Hey Julie. I totally heard the hyphen when you said pea-ness. I didn't hear penis at all, and as you know I have a filthy, filthy mind. You are in fact a gorgeous, glamorous girl, and that is coming from someone who could still potentially be holding an aspic grudge. We are coming out next month, maybe we can all share a non-gelatinous meal?
I just finished reading julie/julia too, and I absolutely adore you and your take on both pea-ness and penis. Well in that you generally seem pro-penis, if not necessarily pro-pea-ness. Either way, you look lovely.

So did I, and so do I. I was like "why are you laughing, mr. lauren?" There was definitely punctuational pronouncement going on.
Anyway -- just picked up J&J finally since somehow friends and family have managed NOT to buy it for me for years now! -- and I am loving it. Come over for a drink sometime.
lol I had to watch that twice before I figured out that you said "Pea-ness" and not "Penis" That was priceless.
The clip was a priceless bit of unintentional humor! My teenage daughter is a youtubeaholic - fun when I find my own interests reflected in youtube. I'm just finishing reading Julie & Julia and loving it. Not a cook myself but your writing style is a treat!
Urgh...it just made Fail Blog...

Ha -- battle pea was a Freudian slip waiting to happen anyway. I mean, the dish was drenched in pee sauce for crying out loud. Anyway, face made for radio? Nah, you're cute as a button. Thanks for the laugh, and if ever Iron Chef decides to do a battle wiener, I hope they ask you to judge.
