FOO Fritters
Jim Gaffigan put it best by saying, "Watching cooking shows while you are hungry is like watching porn". If you have seen the season finale of last seasons South Park (Creme Fresche), you know what I'm talking about. I love to cook, so in anticipation of the upcoming Foo Fighters show I present to you "FOO FRITTERS"
