>>>>>>>>>GV: How did you not crack up when the guest says that she likes the little ones and that the “big ones are just too much in my mouth”… I know I laughed on that one!<<<<<<<<<<

QOTD: Who knows…thats a tough one. I gotta think it has to be something fruit based.

QOTD: Dry roses probably will not pair so well with desserts, but sweeter roses with lighter style desserts, more like berry style trifles, jellies kinda thing rather than pies

Gary,

Never associate the Great Pabst Blue Ribbon Beer with Meister Brau or Black Label.

QOTD: Dry rose is definitely not my first though to pair with dessert. I prefer to pair with a beets salad (especially Anjou rose) or maybe with boquerones, maybe heirloom tomato dishes, gaspacho, etc. BUT if I had to pair with a dessert, maybe profiteroles with mixed berry coulis instead of chocolate, or with a berry compote dish, maybe a less sweet sorbet flavor with a herb twist (raspberry-thyme, strawberry-basil).
To all the rose haters- there are some AMAZING roses, from heavy- extracted- alcoholic and sweet, to light- crisp-and refreshing, and all have their place with or without food. TRY MANY DIFFERENT STYLES BEFORE PASSING DEFINITIVE JUDGEMENT ON ALL ROSE!

Great episode! Katie’s adorable. You were pretty ballsy to call Billy Joel “sensitive” and “girly,” Gar! Actually I saw an interview with Billy Joel on Japanese television and, to tell the truth, he came off as haughty, petty and insecure- perhaps that’s what years of fame can do to a person. I’m sure deep down he must be a good guy to have landed such a cute wife.

QOTD: Cheesecake!!

GV a couple of great ways to flavor and enjoy water: 1) Add a splash of cranberry juice to give unexpected crispness. 2) Add some cucumber slices to give some mouth watering bite…it’s very good.

What’s up with the quiz of the day? As for the QOTD: Use the rose to make a “brine” for soaking some raspberries, strawberries, and watermellon; let that sit for a few hours. Then take the remaning liquid reduce that down with some sugar to make a “simple syrup” and drizzle over the “spiked” fruit sitting on some angelfood cake to soak up the liquid.

I enoyed the Rose episode. That was so cool that Billy Joel just walked down the stairs during the middle of the show!!! I must admit, I definitely have not given Rose its due and have been pretty much neglecting it completely. I will have to give it a whirl, especially if I can get my hands on the donkey & goat.

QOTD: I don’t make desserts, but you tell me so I can try it out sometime!

Thought the guest was nice and genuine, which is what I appreciate in a guest.

QOTD – If the question is what dessert recipe would I pair with rose, well, honestly I’m not sure I would, but only because I rarely eat dessert and rose is more of a early-in-the-meal type pour for me. If the question is what dessert would I make that has rose in it, honestly I’m not sure I would do that either. ;]

Great episode Gary, I can’t believe the Piano Man made a slight appearance on the Thunder show, considering he’s one of my favorite guys ever. Rose’ IS totally underrated and there’s a lot out there that are complex and enjoyable.
QOTD: Strawberry Panna Cotta

I am a lover, an advocate, of the pink juice. I try to expose others to it, who often hate on it, and it’s a shame. I am in the strawberry/watermelon camp as opposed to the raspberry/cherry camp with the pink.

QOTD: never tried cooking with it – esp. dessert!?

Nice vibe to this ep. Very laid back. The rose’ is on the radar and wine no. 3 is topping my list.

QOTD: Anything rhubard or cheesecake. Or rhubarb cheesecake.

QOTD – Chocolate Moose

Great show!

Katie Lee is the most attractive guest I’ve seen on the Thunder Show! Way to go Gary.

QOTD- never had a Rose so not sure what I would cook for dessert

Nice episode and some great double entendre moments and the cameo by Mr Joel was nice as well. Will look into her book

I’m not sure whether I wish trophy wives would just be content to be trophy wives or simply jealous that I can’t score a cutie like Katie. Probably just jealous but watching an episode or two doesn’t qualify as “watching” your show. I won’t be rushing out to buy her cookbooks because she needs to pay her dues and gain expertise in her field to be taken seriously. I don’t think that we hard core Vayniacs have any right to put demands on episode content. The last time I looked we weren’t paying ANYTHING for the episodes. Please yourself and keep putting out your appreciated work.

Hmmm, this one made me feel a little uncomfortable as though I was taking part in a focus group. Who is off to your left? The guest “liked” rose but did not know much about wine or food for that matter but I guess when you’re the wife of a super rock star, alot of things come your way.

Secondly, the wines, again, were “Not Available” and wondering if we will learn about wine or be an audience (focus group) to buy the guests’ books, visit their websites or even be twittered? It’s beginning to feel like bring a groupie following Gary on his road tour.

Give me the laid back couch, mano y mano kind of show. Plus, how did you end up at his townhouse in the first place? Did I miss that tidbit of information? I read she got him to move from the Hamptons to Greenwich so I wonder what is next in store for the Piano Man, West Virginia?

QOTD: Dessert with a dry rosé? It’s almost an culinary oxymoron but I guess you could try a rosé with a plum and fig cake. http://www.tastespotting.com/detail/23824/Plum-and-fig-cake

Cheers!

P.S. I’ll be sure to try the Donkey & Goat if I run across it.

Great episode. If you got Billy to come over and taste with you, it would have jumped up to second best overall behind Gretzky. I have not found a Rose’ that I like but I’ll look for the donkey and goat next time I’m shopping.

QOTD – Strawberry Shortcake. When it’s fresh, its my favorite dessert.

QOTD: Vanilla Ice Cream with fresh berries

This show had all the makings of a great one for me. I love rose and I’ve liked Katie since she was on Top Chef. It just didn’t quite work for me. It bothered me that she came across so poorly while talking about food. Whatever. No worries.

A very nice episode, good guest and your interview skills are continuing to improve.

QOTD – I would try mango or other tropical fruits.
