Nice catch, Martha. 50 million for your own personal cook…and it’s Emeril LIVE! I’m just a little worried that he may end up like the headless Ken doll if Martha pulls too hard on that leash. That collar looks like it has some electrons or something that might be painful…look at his face!
I’m thinking of buying a chef too…
I just can’t decide which one.
Jaime Oliver might be good but he’s got that speech thing –
I know! I’m gonna pick up Anthony Bourdain.
I guess she had to hurry up and get it done before the Ebay fees went up.
I have a side project for you (actually Alpha Mom). I saw a vibrator that hooks to your Ipod on someone elses blog. I couldn’t tell if it was a joke or not, and there’s no way for me to search on something like that without being fired.
I must say, this purchase makes me question Martha’s taste level. Emeril? Really? If you’re going to shell out that kind of change, I would go for someone more au courant. And less annoying. And certainly less hairy.

February 20, 2008 at 8:52 amYou would think she would buy someone more attractive.
Sister Honey Bunch says
February 20, 2008 at 9:05 amSo, Emeril’s her beyotch now, isn’t he? BAM!

BOSSY says
February 20, 2008 at 9:17 amBlackbird: Don’t let soNOTcool hear you talking about Anthony Bourdain in an ownership way. She has kitchen knives and she knows how to use them.
Say What? says
February 20, 2008 at 9:19 amI never even saw the real estate listing for Emeril – I might have put in a bid. Damn that Martha gets everything!
kim at allconsuming says
February 20, 2008 at 9:30 amIs this like her Nepalese sherper?
Blackbird is going to have to fight me for Bourdain.
Maddy says
February 20, 2008 at 9:35 amWe’ll watch the stock market then!

February 20, 2008 at 9:40 amAnd here I feel guilty when I buy a $50 shirt.
Stay away from Scott Kelby.

All Adither says
February 20, 2008 at 9:50 amThat collar looks like it might chafe.
Junebug says
February 20, 2008 at 10:02 amWow Martha’s looking pretty fit and trim in that picture. She must actually be using her trainer’s advice.
The Domestic Goddess says
February 20, 2008 at 10:04 amNow all she has to do is buy Rachel Ray and it’s a monopoly. Dang it, now Emeril’s stuff is gonna cost more.
meleah rebeccah says
February 20, 2008 at 10:21 amMartha is just crazy. And she frightens me.
Grandma J says
February 20, 2008 at 10:25 amThe Domestic Goddess,
Actually, Emeril’s stuff will probably be cheaper now. With all Martha’s powerful and lucrative contracts, Emeril will be coming to a K-Mart near you!
Emily R says
February 20, 2008 at 10:47 amI really like that his collar matches her shirt. That woman can accessorize!
Undomestic Diva says
February 20, 2008 at 11:02 amSo glad you’re doing the Scott Kelby thing. He rocks. He’s my secret luva. (Secret being that he does not yet know.)

cynthia says
February 20, 2008 at 11:32 amI want Jaime Oliver.
And I am willing to take it outside if need be….
sillysally says
February 20, 2008 at 11:50 amstarting the Anthony Bourdain bidding now at….uh….87 cents? sorry, post-holidays, cash a little tight. (whips out credit card)
Tootsie Farklepants says
February 20, 2008 at 12:21 pmI predict a chapter in Martha’s next book on how to fashion a man collar out of handy household items. It’s good to be Martha.
Strizz says
February 20, 2008 at 12:58 pmIt’s a good thing.
dlyn says
February 20, 2008 at 12:59 pmWell Scott Kelby is profiting from your blog – I bought his book after someone mentioned it here. You should ask for a cut bossy.
Foolery says
February 20, 2008 at 1:13 pmMaybe she’s just making a Man Suit. A hirsute Man Suit. It puts the lotion in the basket . . . BAM!
Chesapeake Bay Woman says
February 20, 2008 at 6:06 pmUnattainable benchmarks = new show: Emeril Dead. Shazam!
Wayne says
February 20, 2008 at 7:41 pmWhat’s funny is she thought she was buying a backwards limerick, but doesn’t know how to spell, oh and is dyslexic.

February 20, 2008 at 8:27 pmBAM!
operagal says

Bourdain is at a buck now.Be careful – I have a proxy in.
Dr. Monkey says
February 21, 2008 at 1:27 amI may be for sale if Bossy’s price is right.
HRH says
February 21, 2008 at 9:24 amThis is pure Bossy genius. Martha’s got nothin’ on you (except maybe a few bucks).
Sally says
February 21, 2008 at 10:45 amAfter scrounging another 87 cents out of the sofa, I can now up my Bourdain bid to, uh, $1.74. And 2 ChuckECheese tokens. Take that, OperaGirl!
Sally says
February 21, 2008 at 10:47 amuh, sorry, OperaGAL. (dyslexic, finance challenged me….)
Inner Keening says
February 22, 2008 at 3:51 pmI hear you can buy Graham Kerr dirt cheap, but he’s not as funny now that he’s off the sauce.
Criquette says
February 23, 2008 at 8:41 pmShe knows it’s all about the pork fat. Brings new meaning to the saying “wham BAM, thank you ma’am.”
Heather says
February 25, 2008 at 5:02 pmOh, Emeril. How far you’ve fallen.
