Hell’s Kitchen: My Ugly Addiction

Wednesday, May 21st, 2008

After watching last week’s episode, I was angry. Not at the show, or my husband, or at anything tangible. I was just angry, and then I realized the show totally stressed me out!

I vowed never to tune into Chef Ramsay again, but alas, this week, the TV was back on the same old station at the same old time. Grrr. It doesn’t help that my colleague conducts weekly interviews with the eliminated contestant the morning following the show…

Jaime’s a competitor at heart though, so she braved it all - even eating earthworms - for a chance at the reward. She didn’t win, but she says she made a lifetime of memories. Here’s an exclusive.
