Yancey: The great basketball coach, Bobby Knight said the will to prepare is more important than the will to win. Bun and I were up all night preparing like crazy. But, that doesn't matter if you forget to bring the lettuce!

Bun: I've only watched this episode once, through fingers that were covering my eyes, while cringing. Yancey was afraid to watch it too. If there were a banana peel around that day, I would have found it to slip on. We woke up late to go to the show, because Yancey and I were up for most of the night experimenting on new recipes to demonstrate. I threw on a shirt-which it turns out had a big bleach stain on it, then poked my left eye so it was red, watery and swollen, while trying to get my contact in. Also, the pollen count was the highest of the year and I became bloated from an allergic reaction. I deserved that because I'm vainer than any person should be. Has it taught me humility? Hmmm. Five minutes before going on, setting up for the demo, I realized that I had forgotten all the main ingredients to cook with, other than a tomato, an eggplant, avocados and Mexican cheese. No matter how bad it gets, some wise man once told me that life is like a box of chocolates. I hope you enjoy every sweet morsel of this episode as much as Yancey and I did!

Bun Lai on WTNH - "Sustainable Sushi":

This is Matt Scott's fantastic segment on sustainable sushi. He is one of the first journalist to cover the subject in CT. My memory of this show is a bit foggy for me now. The night before, a close friend of mine brought by the great drag queen playwright and actor, Taylor Mac. I ended up drinking beers into the early morning because there was no way I was going to miss out on hanging out with my idol. Fueled by an hour of sleep, with beer still pumping in my veins, (and still in last nights clothes and cowboy boots) I rolled out of bed, ready to talk about sustainable sushi. I hope you enjoy the video!
