Congrats, @AmandaFaber! I had a feeling early on that you'd be in it until the end. I loved your hand held pastries and your final presentation.

Can you please tell us what months this was filmed? What is the link to your blog?

Hi, thank you so much! We filmed in Sept and Oct. My blog is http://www.luckynumber3.us/ and I post a lot on Instagram as @amandafaber3.

Thanks for posting, Amanda! I'm curious if any of the ideas/plans you alluded to have worked out or are they in process? A cookbook maybe?

You were always so composed, kind, and calm on the show -- it was a pleasure watching you.

Thank you! I'm pretty calm under pressure, but I promise I was swirling like mad inside! :) As far as my plans, I'd love to start a business where I can be creative with baking (probably a small coffee/baked goods business), and I'd like to do something that helps our community in some way. Before I can do that I need to get some family stuff figured out. My son has some health challenges that are requiring a lot for the time being. In the meantime, I'm doing some cake commission and blogging for fun. Thanks again for asking!

Just wanted to say thank you for the "congratulations" and other kind comments. I have really enjoyed reading the recaps on here, and I haven't been able to resist reading the comments too. Some of them sting a bit, and others warm my heart. Either way, I appreciate you guys watching. Thank you again.

If you look at their Twitter feeds, you learn that both Amanda and Stephanie had their families at the finale. I guess they just didn't have time to introduce them.

Don't know if I quoted right. Apologies if it's wonky. Hi, it's Amanda from the show. Steph's husband was able to fly over, but my family couldn't make the trip. We decided it would be too much on the kids (1 & 3) to fly all that way for one day. I wanted them to be there so badly.
