Food Network chef Alex Guarnaschelli smiles during an interview on Friday, Feb. 21, 2014 in Miami Beach, Fla. "You have a shelf-life on TV," she joked during a panel discussion at the South Beach Wine and Food Festival. And the exposure has a price. As much as she enjoys the opportunity to promote herself on television, "Every once in a while I want to get up and cook," she said as the other chefs nodded. "I feel heartsick." Guarnaschelli is chef at Butter in New York City and a winner of the Food Network’s popular show "The Next Iron Chef." She recently took a hiatus from cooking because she felt "fried" and instead turned to teaching _ "Having students was so inspiring." But the departure lasted just a year and she went right back to cooking _ and cooking on television. (AP Photo/Wilfredo Lee)
