I hit Martha’s site to link to the segment where Keith Olbermann makes triple chocolate pumpkin pie with Martha, but I immediately got derailed by this:
“Snoop Dogg and I Make Mom’s Mash-Potatoes”
I have to say that my life is very interesting and also kind of weird. I’m so fortunate in that I get to meet fascinating people. One day I’m presenting Maya Angelou with a Living Legend award and then I fly off to Miami and attend a Victoria’s Secret fashion show. And then yesterday, the multi-platinum rap artist, Snoop Dogg, appeared on my television show and taught me some of his very own language called Snoop-guistics. He and his posse add ‘izzles’ onto the ends of words. It’s kind of a code, or a way of communicating so that others won’t know what they’re talking about. Example: fo shizzle is how they say, for sure.
Snoop Dogg also shared –
Crack-a-lackin – means get something poppin
Chuuuch – means take God everywhere you go and everything will be all right
All hood – means good
Ball til ya fall – get as much money as you can before you dieSnoop Dogg is about to start the second season of his reality TV show, Father Hood on November 30th and he also wanted to share his Five Tips for Fatherhood.
1 – Know when to lie to your kids
2 – Know when to be mean and know when to be a friend
3 – Always stay in control
4 – Serve them juice but hold the gin
5 – When the kids give you attitude, pop ‘em like it’s hotBottom line – Keep your children respectful of their elders.
You have to watch the videos. Fantastic.
The whole segment went on for quite a while, there are a number of other videos embedded on Martha’s blog, including the actual cooking segment.
I’m not sure I like martha talking about her “Chuucha” or “ballin’ till she’s fallin”
