  1. I wonder why they do it that way. Her gazebo was really cute. I know I've watched every episode of this show. However, I've been watching the reruns and feel l've been watching all new shows. I vaguely recognize some of the cookies and construction projects but almost none of the bakers. I guess I need to pay more attention.
  2. Ditto. Courtney's "enthusiasm" has a lot to do with the cameras too I think and her voice is worse than Ree Drummond's. I think winning the first round is what saved her. The carved tree cake was pretty but it didn't look a bit Victorian to me. I didn't understand how it won. The carollers were a cute idea but they were out of sync. Their failure to harmonize smoothly made me cringe more than once. I wondered if they were an actual foursome or FN staffers with decent voices who were told to throw together an act and didn't have enough time to rehearse.
  3. I don't think so. Joe maybe. From the looks of most of them, I'd guess that they work in family businesses or truck stops or something. Most of them don't strike me as being able to be planners and leaders.
  4. I didn't actually dislike her but I had most of those same thoughts, especially the ugh about the recital. I am older than Virginia and most of my friends are too. None of us would try to present as too old to be alert and oriented and competent. She is cute though.
  5. I think most of the chefs who wear only one glove use it to protect against cutting themselves. The glove is always on the hand that holds the food being sliced or chopped, not on the hand holding the knife.
  6. She was impressive - only 18, in all AP classes and very talented. Also she was calm and composed. I'd be happy to see her again.
  7. They could with a quick glance but SD has a little notch where it borders Minnesota and the southeast corner is "bumpy" where it borders Nebraska. ND is more even. Those things jump out if you're a kid putting a puzzle together. I was just happy to see a category I knew because most of the sports and TV and popular culture stuff totally defeats me.
  8. Egypt got off to a bad start the first episode by coming on too strong but he's been fine and a team player since and one of the best cooks. I figured Gordon would have him bring up his dish after the competition and it would be great because that always happens but I was happy to see him vindicated. I hope either Egypt or Joe wins.
  9. Yeah. HR Pufnstuf was on when my kids were little. I can still sing the song. :) I didn't know Boy Meets World and I thought everyone knew Bill Nye.
  10. https://www.realityblurred.com/realitytv/2024/11/worst-cooks-in-america-anne-burrell-out/?utm_source=realityblurred&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=anne-burrell-out-harry-potter-baked-survivor There's a lot in the above article but it doesn't say why Anne is out. I thought I watched reality shows but I've heard of only a half dozen of the ones listed (and never watched any of them) and not a single one of the people.
  11. I didn't catch it either. I thought (hoped) the brother and sister would be going. I was surprised that little was said about the order of colors during judging. I thought everyone knows ROYGBIV and most of them did something else. I'd never heard of a comic book cake so I didn't get how they decided to use fondant on the outside or not. Maybe the order was less important than some other mistakes so they just didn't spend time on it.
  12. Huh. I've been wondering if the show was canceled because it's been so long since I heard aything about it. I like Antonia and I don't mind Jeff if he stays calm instead of cranking it up to goofy. It could work.
  13. When I was growing up, I had a wooden puzzle of the United States and each state was a separate piece. I've known the states by shape and the capitals for as long as I can remember and would have aced that category. The only "hard" ones are Colorado and Wyoming as stated above but, if you guessed wrong, you could quickly say the other. I knew about half of the flowers and only a couple of the kids' shows. The holistic category would have finished me off.
  14. I didn't really have a problem with the foil being left inside the cornucopia. The toppers were mostly for decoration, not for eating. It wasn't meant to be sliced and served.
  15. Very true. Everyone else though seems to be pretty good. I felt especially sorry for Rolf. I don't know what happened to his first batch of cupcakes but I'll bet it was embarrassing for someone with his credentials and experience. Also, I thought the judges' were too hard on him for using marshmallows and candies. Others used candies and he certainly didn't have time to make homemade marshmallows. He made some cute decorations for kids and they criticized him for it. Once again, I wonder about what happens in filming in real time. The woman who used foil in her cornucopia took it out of the oven, walked to her work station and started trying to get the foil out immediately - with her bare hands. Or so it seemed. I think they all go to lunch at some point and things are cooled by the time they come back.
