I am incredibly crazy about the latest South African viewing of MasterChef Australia! I actually
think we, in South Africa, are a tad behind the Australian viewing. Yay, more to see!
I work our evening meal around it, and we enjoy four nights a week of this amazing show!
The Emotion
One becomes so involved with the participants, viewed in one's living room and gasp at the trials and tribulations! Those participants have been in one's living room (one's private space) each night, and almost feel like family.
Learning Curve
On my part I love to learn something new all the time - that is why I follow so many hugely interesting people, from all walks of life, on Twitter. Similarly when one reads a book, it is awesome to learn something new - if not every moment, then certainly, every hour!
The Experts
On MasterChef Australia, experts from around the world, share their prowess and expertise. The participants are constantly "stretched" and learning from the Maestros. We, too, as viewers, have such privilege! How awesome!
Conflict, stress and tension
This is aplenty in the programme! The time deadlines more than anything can undermine skill! There is indeed gazillions of stress! This can result in a "Favourite" undergoing a pressure test - oops more tension!
The Immunity Pin
When the participants have an opportunity to compete with a "maestro chef" it really takes them to the next level! As authors we are competing with maestros in the writing world! We are lucky in that there are so many of such writers who are only too happy to share with less experienced writers, their vast experience. What a privilege!
Scenery and Travel
In the episodes I have particularly enjoyed the travel journeys undertaken by the participants. As a "sometimes" travel blogger, and a former air stewardess who travelled the world, I cannot experience enough photographs and blogs on travel! This surely added another dimension to the programme. In the stories we authors create, we can also travel to any destination we wish - even create a brand new world if desired! How awesome is that, and how amazing for our readers!
Those Who Enjoy
As a viewer of MasterChef Australia, I confess I have left a part of my heart with the participants. Likewise our readers have invested their money and time into what we create! I've still to "get there". I'm still very much a "newbie" in the Writing Sphere, having only published one book, but what a journey of privilege!
