The Rachael Ray Show


Yesterday, I went to a taping of the Rachael Ray Show with a couple of friends. It was so much fun! My friend Lillian was so nice to watch Daniel all day for me so I could go! What a friend!
We took the train in and walked only a few blocks to the studio where we stood in line for an hour and a half or so. After that they took us in through security and up to a waiting room where they had bagels and muffins for you to eat. Then they started seating us. We were in the first group to be seated and even though we weren't the first in line by any means, they put us in the VERY FRONT ROW! It was so great. The studio is so small that you were really close to everything. The studio is a circle and the audience is on a sort of "lazy susan" so they rotate you to where ever they are taping that segment, which was kind of neat. Rachael looked so cute - it's neat to see her up close. They taped parts of two different shows while we were there. The two celebrities we saw were Mark Consuelos -Kelly Ripas husband and Ricki Lake. It was a blast! What an experience! You can probably see us in the audience when they air those shows - so keep a look out for us in the front row!

They gave us all magazines.

We were trying to do our Rachael Ray pose like the one in the picture behind us, but it didn't really work. :)

Check out the super bright orange walls!

Amanda! I saw you on Rachel Ray! They had a close up of your face and I thought that looks like Amanda, so I rewound it. (I love DVR) Then I watched again, and again, and I paused it right on your face. I thought for sure it must be you, and low and behold it was! Crazy! I wish I could have been there with you!
