This week: Little People, Big World ends forever, Apprentice concludes, Katie Lee Joel returns on Top Chef

Last week ended with big news in the reality TV world: Big Brother’s Brendon admitted to cheating on Rachel after his Skype affair with a woman was exposed on Twitter; that exposure included a naked picture of him. Meanwhile, Twitter is a little quieter now that several reality stars, including Ryan Seacrest, are still offline because their fans haven’t donated enough money to bring them back.

But mostly, this week was marked with lots of quitting, starting with The Amazing Race, where there was no consequence for quitting a task. On Survivor, after NaOnka Mixon and Kelly Shinn got an episode celebrating their quitting, they were rewarded and showed different sides of themselves.

Finally, we learned that American Idol will let its viewers vote online for finalists next year, but getting fan support doesn’t translate into record sales. Last season’s winner, Lee DeWyze, had the worst sales of any American Idol winner.

In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt; set aside.Using an electric mix, beat the butter and sugar on medium-high until fluffy – this will take around 2 to 3 minutes.  Mix in the grated zest of the oranges and lemons.  Beat in the vanilla, then the eggs one at a time.Reduce mixer speed to low. Add the flour mixture in 3 additions and the milk in 2 additions, beginning and ending with the flour mixtur...
