One of our top girl crushes, writer/comedienne/rabbit-lover Amy Sedaris, popped by Martha today to demonstrate how to make her special cheeseballs. But Martha wasn't really digging Amy's recipe because Amy used smoked cheese which, apparently, Martha hates. There was another ingredient in Amy's cheeseball recipe, however, one that Martha had never heard of. It's something that you and I call A-1 sauce, but that Amy has another name for (think college dorm rooms). The clip, above.

How can Martha Stewart not like smoked cheese? This proves my theory that she's alien. There's no other explanation.
Like the bog water, it seems that much of Amy's humor would go unappreciated by Martha or her target audience.
It's like watching a Rottweiler toying with a chihuahua. Sharp wit meets . . . well. . . . Martha Stewart. I couldn't think of anything duller than Martha Stewart.
Martha is one condescending bitch. Amy Sedaris, gullible? I think not.
I noes - Martha is clueless. "don't judge me"
BOG water? What is this bog water you speak of--is it like toilet wine?
That is effing hysterical.
"Are you saying BOG water? Bog? Bog water?"
I thought you were supposed to be accomodating to guests. Isn't that rule #1? What is this "give Amy the smoked cheese because I think it's icky" bullshit. I hate you Martha. And by hate I mean secretly love, let's never fight again.
I would pay to watch Amy and Martha in a craft-off. Amy would win, of course, but it would be hours of fun watching Martha slowly lose it as her usual tricks do nothing to undermine Amy's quirky pluck. I see it ending with Martha in a bunny costume, and Amy using her as a prop for a lesson in how to litter train your rabbit.
i just started liking martha stewart. that was hilarious. i think martha was playing along.
i really cannot friggin' stand martha. calling amy "gullible" when she claims to not know what bong water is... and the condescension in "do YOU like SMOKED CHEESE?" yes, bitch, i like smoked cheese, especially when it's squirted RIGHT out of the can onto my 'chicken in a biscuit' cracker. them's some good eatin'!
too bad amy didn't do the cooking segment on the colbert report!
@mockingbird: There is no more perfect ending to such a scenario.
I'm still stuck on the part where it looks like Amy may be wearing a dirndl. Is she quietly supporting Oktoberfest? After her bong water comment I wouldn't be surprised to hear she's a not-so-closet alchy.
Amy, sweet Amy. So awesome. Last time she was on Martha promoting her book she was working Martha's last nerve in a subtle sort of way. I love her----she looks like a pygmy next to Martha though. I forget she is that tiny.
I LOVE AMY SEDARIS!! Got her to sign my "Strangers with Candy" DVD at a movie screening- she wrote "Pee on me". I heart her! :)
And fuck Martha Stewart, being all condescending! :P
@FourInchHeels: From what I've seen of her in interviews and stuff, Amy is pretty straight edge. She just plays the drug references for laughs. But I could be wrong... ;)
Amy is my hero. I relate to her more than any celeb ever.
Martha and Amy are my heroes. Conan had both Martha and Amy on his show a long while back (Martha taught him how to iron, Amy taught him how to make grilled cheese with an iron) and I came a little. And Martha's deadpan kicks ass -- she looked and sounded the same way when she chugged some Jack Daniels and ate a Big Mac on Conan as she does when she has wine and paté.
Amy Sedaris is one of my most favorite people EVA. I like Martha, too, but she better not be mean to my Amy. I will cut a bitch!
Martha was for sure playing along. She let out a deep guffaw when Amy first said "bong water." She knows.
If Martha smoked, she's never get all that stuff done... or she's just stick to cooking delicious food.
I got the impression she was correcting Amy, in a 'that kind of joke is not ok on my show missy' kind of way. Did she go on as if she had never heard of this new-fangled bongwater?
Judge Judy could kick Martha Stewart's butt.
No, I've changed my mind. Disregard. Except for the Judge Judy part.
Yeah way.
I was always rooting for Martha, but man, she's an asshole sometimes.
I'm so excited! I just made Amy's cheeseballs tonight before I saw that video. They turned out delightful.
Anyone read Amy's book, I Like You ? What a hoot! Amy's quick on the uptake. Martha, sloooow.
@PantyWaist: That's my coffee table book. I love the subtitle, "Entertaining Under the Influence." In addition to being really funny, it actually has some good recipes in there too!
@rednrowdy: Lord, but I do love the glory and goodness that is a Chicken in a Biscuit. Those are some damn fine crackers.
"No one's gonna eat chutney, Martha."
Pitch perfect!
@PantyWaist: I love the book! I used to write for the newspaper in her hometown and I did a review of the book and her Dad called and left a really sweet voicemail thanking me for writing about his daughter. Since I worship her and her brother David, it was probably the happiest day of my life!
I am looking for the link right now, but Martha just did an interview in which she says Amy is delightful and hilarious. Martha seems to have a pretty dry sense of humor, I think she was just playing. I love them both and the night they were both on Conan, it was like a dream come true, if only I could have been there.
Martha rules! She was def playing along with Amy. My friend worked on the Macy's commercial (the one with Usher) and said she was awesome and brought cupcakes for everyone. Usher was the jerk.
@FondlemySweaters: Oh, I don't know about that. Sometimes I need a little motivation/focus to get my apartment clean.
I bet they were both hitting the bong backstage after that segment...
F.D.A. finds link between contaminated blood thinner from China and 81 deaths in the U.S. The life expectancy for U.S. women has reversed for the first time since 1918--smoking, obesity are the likely culprits.
