HE DIDN'T HONOR THE PROTEIN! ZOMG!

Speaking of, my boyfriend made bacon-wrapped venison and bacon mashed potatoes last night and sent me pictures of it. Never have I been sadder that our relationship is long distance (for now).

HE DIDN'T HONOR THE PROTEIN! ZOMG!

Tom has evidently recovered from his Iron John weekend.

I don't mind Stefan so much. He's kind of an ass, but you can tell he's also kind of a goof. (I loved his "Andrea! Call me!")

This is me. He doesn't pretend *not* to be an ass, is the thing.

Everybody this year has been more than willing to help each other out, too, which I appreciate. None of Marcel's "I'm too busy."

yeah, you have to appreciate that. He is exactly who he appears to be. As much as I like Hosea, his sniping about Fabio and Stefan is childish (although I did love the kissy face he and Stefan were doing in the quickfire)

Possibly the one thing that keeps me liking Hosea is the fact that when Leah's fucking something up he's pretty frank about it. And without being nasty. In interviews, anyway. So the annoying and kind of distasteful personal situation at least isn't bleeding over into the competition. Which is a refreshing change from the usual shomance "any criticism of the person I'm obsessed with is bullshit".

But he brings plenty of other annoying stuff to the table so it only goes so far.

Leah on the other hand I just want off my screen. Now.

I haven't liked him since the canned crab incident.

My issue with Hosea is that he continually reveals himself to be a gigantic douchenozzle. I could go into details, but that's the basic gist.

I was seriously rooting for Jamie. She seemed low drama and high talent, and just loved cooking well. Carla is a freak of nature, but talented, and she's slowly won me over. I like Stefan, though I doubt I'd like him in person. Fabio is okay, but with a little too much smarm. I'm over Leah and Hosea.

I think the relationship has been affecting Hosea's cooking. The issue with his dish last night was that he wasn't paying enough attention to the food, which to me is a focus issue. I want Leah off my screen because she annoys me, she's been a quitter the whole season and this is the first time she's been called on it, and I'd rather see if Hosea has anything he can do.

Shocked, shocked at Jamie's ouster instead of Leah. Definitely the editing told a different story than Tom is now. I think she was by far the superior chef and I cannot believe I have to put up with Leah for one more week.

Stefan is almost certainly going to win, and I do think he's an ass. But I think he's the best chef up there. Of course I'd be happy if Carla pulled it out, like you guys, she's really grown on me. But even though she seems to be peaking at the right time, she's still got serious nerves working and I'm afraid she'll be a Casey at the final table.

Worried about Fabio from the previews! Ack! Ack!

I do like the cooperation without drama between the chefs. But that's one of the other things that makes it clear to me that Leah needs to go; she's always needing help. She has no business in that kitchen.
