And Giada's never really done it for me. I mean, yeah, she's hot, but somehow she lacks that base eroticism of Nigela. There's something about Nigela's show that's just so amazingly pornographic. Maybe it's her voice, or how they linger over her long fingers gently caressing and working the food. Not to mention the occassional scene they shoot supposedly at night where she's doing something with the leftovers for a midnight snack barely dressed in silk pj's, wrapping her arms around a dish as she slides upstairs to bed.
Her recipes are less than top notch, and, as tv stars go, she's not all that hot, but I can't seem to turn away.

For the record, Giada's cookbook (called Everyday Italian, or something like that) is absolutely amazing. The almond cake recipe is enough to justify the cost of the whole book, and her panna cotta is devilishly good (omit one half the honey, however).
