Wanna be a cook? Learn the proper use of the reduntant words "out" and
"up" and learn to glorify your work, regardless of its mediocrity.

Giada does it a lot:

Measure out
Thaw out
Grill up
Pack up (cookies)
My perfect (whatever)

SLee is worse:

Mix this up
Cook this up
Stir this up
Toast this up
While these are baking up
Finish off (my rice)
It's thickening up
Finish up
Press these down (patties)
My super super simple (whatever)
My phenomenal (whatever)
My wonderful (whatever)

Then SLee makes the most incredible statement. She wraps bacon around
a hot dog and "cooks it up" and says, "Kids love these and it's an
easy way to get protein into them."

Yep. Also a good way to watch them "fatten up".
