Too Much Food Network?

Have you ever had a recurring dream that is pretty much the same dream with different people in it? My theme of late seems to be cooking with chefs from the food network...yes, it's true. Last year Bobby Flay and I hung out in a dream. A few months ago I dreamt Rachel Ray and I were buds and cooked a meal together. Last night I bonded with Ina Garten from Barefoot Contessa. We cooked together (thus the recurring part) and then talked about her house...it was painted with bright colors and looked nothing like it does on TV. I asked her if she really lived in the Hamptons, and she said of course not! She also said her real house is never as clean as it seems on TV (because that is not her house anyway), and in my dream I felt relieved that she wasn't as perfect as she seemed (seriously, how many people used homemade chicken broth in every dish?) Funny, isn't it? That we can feel emotions so strongly in our dreams? I'm wondering who will be next...maybe Giada or Paula Deen--that would be a hoot! I think I may be watching way too much food TV...
