A Sandwich for Liz Lemon

A couple of weeks ago when I first heard the news that Liz Lemon was getting married – and that guests were asked to bring their own snacks – I decided to make a meal that was fitting for the occasion. In fact, a friend of mine and I even decided to have a little party to celebrate. But, life intervened and we couldn’t get together, so I completely spaced my food plans.

However, after writing about nutritious food all day on Thursday the 29th, I looked at the calendar and realized that it was Liz Lemon’s wedding day, and I had nothing prepared to munch on in front of the television! (Except for two types of lentil salad.) Continue reading →

Hey, Nerds! Liz Lemon Will Have A New Love Interest!

And it’s not a block of cheese or a sandwich! Probably not. EW reports that a casting call has gone out, and they are seeking “a man ages 36-40. . .who can play Liz Lemon’s next love interest. Here’s the official description: “California-bred with liberal values and a youthful innocence. Easy-going but confident with a strong sense of self.”” They will consider everyone from no-names to A-listers, which 30 Rock already has a solid history of netting for multi-episode arcs. EW has some casting suggestions so head over there to check them out, but I want to read your suggestions. Who do you think should be Liz’s next love interest? 30 Rock will return with a new season in early 2012; Fey gave birth very recently so she’s a little busy. Pic via
