Mrs BamaVol is forever asking me to look for this recipe or that after she's seen someone on Oprah or GMA. She has made a couple herself, although she's not much into cooking and definitely not a Food Network fan.
I, on the other hand, watch the shows without planning to look for the recipes later. However, I will download recipes from celebrity chefs that may have appeared on their shows when I'm looking for something specific. I also have a half dozen cookbooks published by celebrity chefs.
