You were great!<br /><br />Great review, too. Thank you for all the nice comments/compliments and for coming to the show. It meant a lot to me. I want to see you on the show next! Please?<br /><br />That's a great picture of you and Guy!Emilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17204776831565649927noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2542361835947520230.post-74775200516626692142010-03-16T18:32:57.976-04:002010-03-16T18:32:57.976-04:00If you ever get a chance to hit the Springfield, M...If you ever get a chance to hit the Springfield, Mo area for any reason, let me know.

The shock wore off having had a couple of months to sort of forget it, but I did find myself tearing up a bit after watching the show. <br /><br />Val and Peter - sorry for the spolier, but I think Emily spoiled it for you herself on her FB. ;-)<br /><br />Sue - Editing made it a whole new show. So glad we shared it together!<br /><br />Topher- Emily's first dish had some flaws, but she received quite a bit of praise from the judges, particularly on her second dish. I think she may have won if she had cut her chicken into smaller pieces and fried them rather than frying and then cutting so the coating came off and cut back on the hot sauce a little. <br /><br />I'm not dissing the winner. I thought her pizza was gross because there was crawfish on it and I hate seafood (swampfood?). I'd probably like it if she left it off. I'm not saying she didn't deserve the prize. She just didn't seem to want it as much as Emily did.<br /><br />Melissa - I'm not a huge fan of Guy. His cooking has some good points, but most of the time it's not my cup of tea and his personality realllly grates on me. However, he came across as quite affable and friendly on URS and did take the time to pose for photos with all audience members.<br /><br />Deb - I know it will!The Short (dis)Order Cookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05510572788683143569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2542361835947520230.post-21197445633822735222010-03-16T09:11:49.019-04:002010-03-16T09:11:49.019-04:00Great recap.

I'd love to take a look. <br /><br />Oddly enough, though I almost never have FN turned to competition shows, I actually caught half of this one. Sorry Emily lost, but she definitely stands out. Here's to bigger and brighter things!<br /><br />Also, curious... what did you think of Guy?Melissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12439733116558336290noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2542361835947520230.post-5180467545080933732010-03-15T16:22:10.704-04:002010-03-15T16:22:10.704-04:00What an amazing expierence!

I don't take anything away from her but at the same time, you should give a little credit to Gail whose pizza did win. Obviously it had to be good otherwise it wouldn't have beaten all the other dishes. It is possible that the other 3 people there cooking had talent too.Topherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07459650602740077365noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2542361835947520230.post-34633131161246078452010-03-15T14:42:48.775-04:002010-03-15T14:42:48.775-04:00Excellent recap.
