Dancing with the CSI Miami Stars

CSI: Miami Star Clears the Air About New "Office Romance" by Matt Webb Mitovich
Eva La Rue, CSI: Miami Is romance in the air for a pair of CSI: Miami crime-solvers? Who might be packing heat this season? And how can you — yes, you — score a "date" with the lovely Natalia Boa Vista? Just before returning to work this week on the hit CBS procedural, Eva La Rue discussed with TVGuide.com those hot topics and more!
TVGuide.com: Natalia had quite a year, with the ex-husband showing up and then getting murdered, her sister being abducted....Eva La Rue: I know, it was a very crazy year!
TVGuide.com: It seems as if someone gets promoted there, it's not necessarily a good thing!La Rue: No, it's not! If Natalia wanted to have a more fly-under-the-radar, lay-low year after being the mole, I don't think it really happened. [Laughs]
TVGuide.com: Working the pharmacy at CVS is probably looking good to her now.La Rue: Exactly.
TVGuide.com: Have you heard about any changes or tweaks for the upcoming season of CSI: Miami?La Rue: No. As a matter of fact I'm waiting to get my script. So I have no idea what's happening. I ran into Emily [Procter] a few days ago and she had just gotten hers, but she hadn't read it yet. She's already in Florida, but I have another week of vacation. I'm in the same episode, but all of her scenes are exterior.
TVGuide.com: What do you make of this flirtation we're starting to see between Calleigh and Delko?La Rue: Well, at the end [of the season], didn't it look like she went with Jake?
TVGuide.com: Yeah, but we know how soapy things can get.La Rue: I know, I know.... I might be wrong, but as "Joe Viewer," it looked to me like Calleigh's intent was one of caring for him as her partner, and Delko took it to be a little more personal — probably egged on by Natalia.
TVGuide.com: Plus, that's just what guys do. We like to think the pretty blonde is more interested in us than she is.La Rue: [Laughs] But I think Calleigh's interest was more motherly, because Delko had come back from being shot. In the end, she's not quite over Jake.
TVGuide.com: What does Natalia think of Maxine these days? They used to be on equal footing, but with Natalia's promotion, their relationship got a bit more antagonistic.La Rue: It's funny, they were friends in the beginning, but I never got the feeling that Maxine really trusted Natalia, and obviously she shouldn't have. And then in the second season, Maxine started dating my ex-husband, even though she didn't know that, but when she did find out, she should have steered clear. I think Natalia still cares about what happens to Maxine, but I don't think it's a deep friendship there. You don't have to love everybody you work with.
TVGuide.com: What would you like to see Natalia do this season, even if it's a one-shot deal?La Rue: She hasn't been able to qualify for her gun license yet, but I think they're going to get into that. I don't have any interest in seeing her stay on the straight and narrow, so as long as she's always in some sort of predicament, I like that.
TVGuide.com: Now, what's this thing going on where some lucky sap can win a date with you?La Rue: Oh, that! [Laughs] But it could be a girl, too, in which case we'd go have a girls' shopping day. It's a promotion that Claritin is doing, a "Win a Perfectly Clear Day with..." sweepstakes where we will either go shopping, or....
TVGuide.com: Back up, because it says here "A day of horseback riding with Eva, a day of golf with Ronnie Lott or a makeover with Ken Paves."La Rue: It's horseback riding, I guess, if you horseback ride. It depends on who wins.
TVGuide.com: If not, it's Rodeo Drive? On Eva's Amex?La Rue: Not on my Amex!
TVGuide.com: Ken Paves is, like, a makeup artist to the stars, right?La Rue: Yeah, he is. I'd like to win that one!
TVGuide.com: Why Claritin? Do you happen to be an allergy sufferer?La Rue: Yeah, I totally am. Back in the day, there were only a few things you could take, but they just made me jittery yet foggy. So when Claritin came on the market, it was the only thing I could use that would let me go to work alert and focused at [All My Children].
TVGuide.com: I didn't have allergies for some 30 years, and then I move out of the city into the suburbs and wham.La Rue: Exactly. See, for me, I moved form Los Angeles to New York City, but right across the street from the park, and I couldn't leave the building, it was so bad. On the soap we had to memorize a lot of pages a day, so I could not go in there foggy, but Claritin cleared that all right up.
TVGuide.com: What kind of TV do you like these days?La Rue: Well, I watch CSI: Miami now, and....
TVGuide.com: Are you obligated to watch the other two flavors of CSI?La Rue: No, I don't think we are. And I don't, just out of crosstown rivalry. [Laughs]
TVGuide.com: Les Moonves doesn't come to your home and hard-code your DVR to record them all?La Rue: No, surprise! But I love Grey's Anatomy, and I am the biggest, biggest sap for Extreme Makeover: Home Edition. I sit there with a box of tissues on the couch every Sunday night. I love it. Unfortunately, though, when the TV is on, it's usually some version of Hannah Montana or Even Steven.... [La Rue has a 5 -year-old daughter named Kaya.]
TVGuide.com: Or High School Musical for the 100th time.La Rue: Aye-yi-yi! Will the second one just come out already?!
TVGuide.com: One of my editors wants to know if you ever laugh at "the line," that is, what Horatio says before the opening credits?La Rue: He's sort of our Arnold Schwarzenegger, like "The Terminator — CSI: Miami." He's got these "I'll be back" lines, and he makes it work.
TVGuide.com: Have you seen the compilation on YouTube? It's seven minutes of his best lines, complete with the sunglasses snaps. La Rue: No! Send me the link. He would think that's really funny.
TVGuide.com: Oh, at the May upfronts he intro'd each night's programming! "In Miami" — sunglasses snap — "we call Wednesday 'el dia de la hump.'"La Rue: He's got the best sense of humor, and that's why those lines work.

Chocolate Chip Cookies Recipe, the favourite sweet of Eva Larue

Chocolate Chip Cookies Recipe by Ruth Wakefield,

Ruth Wakefield, who was the owner of the Toll House Inn in Massachusetts, is credited with inventing the chocolate chip cookie. The story goes that one day in 1930 she cut a Nestle's Semisweet Yellow Label Chocolate bar into small chunks and added it to her butter cookie dough. The cookies were an instant hit with her customers and word of their popularity reached the Nestle company. Nestle must have realized that adding small chunks of their chocolate bar to cookie dough would appeal to the mass market because by 1939 Nestle was selling chocolate morsels (or chips). What a brilliant marketing plan it turned out to be when Nestle packaged the chips in a Yellow bag and then bought the rights to the Toll House name and Ruth Wakefield's chocolate chip cookie recipe. They called her recipe "The Famous Toll House Cookie" and printed it on the back of the Yellow bag of chocolate morsels.
This recipe is very similar to the recipe on the back of the Nestle's chocolate chip bag. Made with butter and a combination of white and brown sugars it produces a rich and chewy cookie with caramelized edges. Now, making chocolate chip cookies can present a challenge. As John Thorne states in his book 'Serious Pig', "our national cookie demands more skill than many of us can muster.....It is too rich for its own good." So if you have trouble making these cookies you are not alone and as John Thorne tells us "there is no really foolproof method."
Note: Although flour, sugar (white and/or brown), butter or margarine, baking powder and/or baking soda, eggs, vanilla, and chocolate chips make up a chocolate chip cookie recipe, taste and texture do vary by recipe. So if you want to try another type of chocolate chip cookie I have included a recipe for Chocolate Chunk Cookies. This recipe has more brown sugar than white sugar which gives the cookies a more caramel flavor. And true to Ruth Wakefield's original cookie recipe, I have chopped up a semi sweet chocolate bar instead of using chocolate chips. There is also less flour in these cookies so their texture will be more crisp and you may need to chill the batter before baking as the batter has a tendency to be soft because of all the butter.

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) with rack in center of oven. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper. Set aside.
In the bowl of your electric mixer (or with a hand mixer), cream the butter. Add the white and brown sugars and beat until fluffy (about 2 minutes). Beat in eggs, one at a time, making sure to beat well after each addition. Add the vanilla and beat until incorporated.
In a separate bowl, combine flour, baking soda, and salt. Add the dry ingredients to the egg mixture and beat until incorporated, adding the chocolate chips about half way through mixing. If you find the dough very soft, cover and refrigerate until firm (about 30 minutes).
For large cookies, use about a 2 tablespoon ice cream scoop or with two spoons, drop about 2 tablespoons of dough (35 grams) onto the prepared baking sheets. Bake about 12 - 14 minutes, or until golden brown around the edges. Cool completely on wire rack.
Makes about 4 dozen - 3 inch round cookies
Note: You can freeze this dough. Form the dough into balls and place on a parchment lined baking sheet. Freeze and then place the balls of dough in a plastic bag, seal, and freeze. When baking, simply place the frozen balls of dough on a baking sheet and bake as directed - may have to increase baking time a few minutes.

Eva la Rue is a Hot Mom, by KD Griffin

Eva Los Angeles Premiere of LionsGate’s “Happily N’Ever After” Hosted by the Hot Moms Club
There’s a a nifty interview with Eva La Rue (did I just ryhme?) over at American Fitness. She chats about eating correctly and finding time to work out despite her busy schedule. In addition to her CSI role Eva hosts E!’s Modern Girl’s Guide to Life and is a single parent to 4 year-old Kayla.
“I signed myself up for Pilates and yoga classes. I needed to get back into a regimented workout,” admits LaRue, who also takes walks in the neighborhood with Kaya and their dog Bingo. Although exercise class isn’t always possible, a couple of days a week she tosses in lunges, squats and isolated movements for her hips. “These moves are my constant no matter what other routine I’m doing, and I always do something for my arms like bicep curls,” she says.
She also has a sweet tooth. Ah a woman after my own heart
“I am a chocolate chip cookie and brownie fiend,” she says with a laugh. “I can go without cakes, ice cream or other desserts but life is simply not worth living without a chocolate chip cookie every now and then.”
