Rachael Ray

Vodka Pasta, Blogging and the Dr.Oz Show

May 6, 2011 By Lena

*EDIT* It’s confirmed! My salute to Rachael Ray via The Dr.Oz Show will air on Monday, May 9th. Check your local listings… and cross your fingers for me! I’m hoping to have at least 3 seconds of face time, ha!

You may be wondering… what do those three things have in common?

I’ll rewind. A few weeks ago, I posted a recipe for Rachael Ray’s “You Won’t Be Single for Long” Vodka Pasta. Yes, I made this pasta for my man while we were dating… and yes, he put a ring on it.

I shared the recipe for all the single ladies out there, with hopes that you too could knock a man off his feet with your obvious culinary skills. Well, no one was more surprised than me when I received an e-mail from the producers of the Dr.Oz Show shortly after. They had seen my post and wanted to know if I’d like to appear on the show alongside Rachael Ray… who’d show my husband and I how to make an updated, healthier version of her famous recipe.

YES! I’M SERIOUS!!!

Well, this past week we were dealing with a few family issues (Ryder, being a boy, took a little tumble that required ongoing medical attention) so we had to take a pass on making an appearance. BUT, the producers did ask us to record a home video giving a shout out to Rachael, and telling the world how the pasta helped me reel in my hubby! We sent the video in on Thursday and our fingers are crossed the producers like what they see.

Now, if y’all recall, the last time I was filmed for the Rachael Ray show, after a ton of editing, I believe only my hand made it to the final cut… so I’m not calling an agent just yet. Hopefully this time I’ll get some face time – that would be sweet!

I’ll keep you posted on when the segment airs! Wish me luck!
