Contract negotiations with the networks are still in the works…so far NBC has the best offer, but CBS offers a kitchen built to her size. Regardless, coming to a screen near you….

Cooking with Lainey

Hi, and Welcome to the show. I’m Lainey Love and you’re watching “Cooking with Lainey.” Let’s get started. Today, we’re making steamed honey nut cheerios with herb sauce.

You can use any variety of cheerios, but because General Mills sponsors my show, I’m stickin’ to the branded stuff. You wanna begin by adding a cup of cheerios to a pot of water and boil. Make sure to cover your pot.

As you can see, I like to throw a pot holder in to add a little extra flavor.
Next, you’re gunna wanna add a little chicken seasoning to liven up the palate. “Give your mouth a party,” I say. There ya go. Not too much.

Now, you’re gunna stir that really well and let it simmer for awhile.

Oh, beautiful. Take a look at that!
Now, here comes my favorite part. Let’s taste this masterpiece!

De. Lish.

Thanks for watchin’! See you next week!

So, I’m totally sensing a major hit. We might be millionaires.
With her first check, we’re hoping to buy this, my dream kitchen for her. Or, at least her “managers” are going to shoot for getting her the stove for Christmas and build from there. It’s another one of those silly things I’ve pined over since before I was pregnant. I would dog-ear the Pottery Barn catalogue to that kitchen page and swear that someday I’d have a girl, and she’d have that kitchen. It’s half for me and half for her.
(but you should have seen her when we were playin’ “kitchen” today. We started with some of her pots and pans and a few spices. Pretty soon, Brandyn noticed and got a kick out of it, and five minutes later, he had dragged the entire kitchen with ingredients to boot out into the living room. I’m thinkin’ NBC might hire him as one of the kitchen crew. He’d be great.)

In out-of-the-kitchen news, she’s walking like crazy. Everywhere. And she half looks like a little Frankenstein, arms outstretched, knees locked and then half looks like a druken sailor, weaving and wobbling in little zig-zags as she attempts to make it to her desitnation. Doing fabulous-ly, if you ask me.
