Christmas gift ideas for the foodie in your life

It can be really hard to buy gifts for someone who is into something you have no idea about. When it comes to foodies and chefs, for example, I would not recommend trying to buy them a pan for Christmas. Most foodies have very staunchly held opinions about pans, and unless you have specific instructions, buying them a pan is a sure ticket to a returned or regifted item.

Abby's Ultimate Dance Competition, season 2 episode 10 recap

This week's episode is titled "Divas in the House," with a diva theme and an emphasis on performance. To kick off the episode, Abby brought in little Asia, whom she described as the "ultimate diva from season 1," to host a dance battle for the first competition.

Asia pretty much smoked all five of the season 2 dancers. JoJo was doing pretty well until she copied one of Asia's moves. Gianna lost when she laughed and clapped for Asia during their dance-off, but how could you not? That kid is adorable.
