So, other thoughts:

I'm really worried for Steph--this was her worst week yet.

I'm glad you're teaching your daughter to cook, Antonia. Are you teaching her to stab her teammates in the back and ignore the rules of whatever game she plays, too?

That Richard Blais wants to make little Blaises is all the proof that I need that the universe hates me.

I totally related to both Nikki and Dale on this challenge. I was the runt of the litter, too, growing up, and I hated it as much as Dale apparently did. As for Nikki, her history really spoke to me. My mother practically raised my sister and me by myself until I was 8, and then there was no "practically" about it until I was 13 and she married my stepfather. One of the reasons I started learning how to cook was because I had to--my mother started graduate school when I was about 11.

I. Am. Sick. Of. Lisa. I am sick of her attitude, her unimaginative food, her cigarettes, her nose ring, her babushka, her scowl, and I am just sick of her.

Bye, Mark. Hope I run into you sometime in New York; I'd love to deconstruct that duck of yours and see if we can make something amazing out of it.

Andrew with a boner of any kind is almost enough to turn me straight.

As much as I hate to admit it, Spike was really good working with his junior partner.

Yes indeed! I'm starting over after 15 years. I'm enjoying the heck out of it. How about you?



Oh lord, I'm on the other end of that spectrum.
I'm 20, & decided one day to get an accounting degree online.
For me at least, it's pretty flippin' difficult, but I like learning again.

In grouchy gal's case, because her food just isn't that good.

So is anyone else shocked that they Jobbed Mark off the show?

I mean how can you possibly justify keeping gross food that can't be salvaged?

I said this at 9:11 AM today and I'm sorry for Mark that the show is this transparent:


Shocked? No. Disappointed? yes.
Whoa... that's like deja vu all over again

The first time I took Accounting I didn't understand it at all. After working for several years it made a heck of a lot more sense. Taking most of my classes on campus but this semester it's all online courses. Sure saves on gas!

RIP B&B's Worst Food Theory.

Stephanies food was "OFFPUTTING!!!!!!!!"

AND SHE STAYED!!!!!!!!

LMAO this show is such a joke.

I'm viewing it again, just now . . . and I hear Tom say how putrid (my word) the tomato and peanut butter is . . . can't get his exact sentiment, but it's totally negative!

The combination of peanut butter and tomato was off-putting (that's what I just heard him say in final JT).

And Guess what I just saw in Ted Allen's Blog. He's actually trying to claim that Antonia and Lisa did infact use polish sausage in their dish!!!!

Ted has to cover for the Producers.
