Molly Yeh is just so much fun to watch.

At the end of a long work day, it's very relaxing to watch her show.

She is always smiling...I love that!

IT'S GOING TO BE A GREAT DAY!

I love watching Molly's show because she utilizes her interesting background (Jewish/Chinese) to create a variety of delicious dishes AND her lovely family (both sides) gives me a big helping of harmony and love in these very tumultuous times!

 

Molly, Nick and Bernie welcomed their new addition, a baby girl named Ira and I read in this week's episode she'll highlight their home remodel that apparently took place over the last 2+ yrs. 

 

The article said that Molly plans to keep the kitchen she's been filming in over the years for the show but the remodel included a new kitchen for the family's use.

Molly, Trisha and Ree are my jam. I wish I could eat all their stuff without gaining an ounce! The Food Channel can be dangerous!

She has a reputation for foul mouth language, which does not appeal to me.  In reviews of her cookbook "Molly on the Range" readers state:

"Wow...shocked after opening this cookbook and started reading it...scattered with vulgar language throughout! Not mildly offensive...but "mother______" and "F___", and much more. She looks/acts innocent enough on her cooking show... so I was unprepared for this in her first cookbook ever. Not sure why the publisher allowed this to go through. Shame on them for publishing it this way...NOT necessary!!!"

 

"I bought this Cookbook for a Christmas gift. Upon receiving the Reader finds the Author using God's name in vain on page 145 and on page 19 discussing farting while kissing her boyfriend now husband. Seriously? Really? Why does the Author feel a need to use God's name in vain and discuss her passing gas in a Cookbook? Does the Author really believe the reader wants to hear this in a Cookbook? Maybe there are reader's out there clamoring for this content in a Cookbook but I have not met them yet. Very disappointing."

 

"I was surprised and disappointed by her language. I found it offensive and crass.
I returned the book."

 

I think like all people on TV or the screen, they are not who they seem in real life.  

 

I don't find much in her recipes that I would cook.  Just my opinion.

@new nickname 4   I read every review I could find on this book and did not find any reviews that reflect your statements.

The first segment I ever saw from her was for a popcorn salad, which was popcorn tossed with snap peas, celery, some herbs, and a mayo dressing. She tried to pass it off as a classic Midwestern dish. It looked absolutely disgusting, and I haven't been able to take her seriously since. Google it if you want a good laugh (or cry lol).

I never heard of Molly Yeh until I saw her hosting the Spring Baking Championship.  Don't care for her.  Too much drama and high pitched voice.  So phony.
