Giada

Some children like fairies

Some children like princesses

And some children like trains

Or furry happy monsters

Or, if you are Kendall, Giada De Laurentis. Of Food Network fame.

Kendall just loves Giada. She is on Food Network and the new Cooking Channel multiple times a day, and every time, Kendall's face lights up and she watches intently. I don't know if it is the Italian cuisine, or Giada herself.

I am currently leaning toward Giada herself. Kendall and I were recently perusing the Target, as we do every Friday, and came across a display for the new line of cooking implements. With a giant picture of Giada, big as life. Kendall got super excited, started bouncing up and down in the cart, and would not take her eyes off the poster. If she could have, she would have spun her head around backwards to keep staring at the picture. Quite a reaction for an 8 month old.

Only thing that makes the show better for Kendall is when Giada has her daughter Jade on

Excited does not start to describe it. Kendall loves other kids, and add in Giada with it - whoa!

I would blame this on my obsessive Food Network viewing while pregnant (and after). Problem with this is that I have a job, and I do not watch Food Network during the day, I am more of a cake challenge at night kind of girl. So I have no idea where she gets this from.

Maybe we have a tiny chef in the making.
