I was surprised Ashleigh went home. It really seemed from the comments that it was going to be Monique. Disappointed, because I wanted the NC chef to do better.
So many chefs didn’t seem to understand the Quickfire assignment.

I don't even know how you make tuiles in that precise shape. A squeeze bottle? A stencil? They were so perfectly shaped and there were so many of them.
Right??? Those things looked mass produced they were so precise!

That was a really interesting Elimination Challenge and provided some of the most intriging dishes this season so far. Some of the teams were very innovative.
(I did not mean to do all “I” adjectives, LOL.)
I think the right team went home. I was surprised Demarr messed up his cornbread. Glad to see Ashleigh on the top after the string of bottoms — since she’s an N.C. chef, I want her to do well.
Jae is hilarious.

I simply CANNOT with Charlotte’s military love interest (Lennox?). I had to stop watching “Dickensian” because that actor’s character was so utterly vile. I can’t shake that association.
I was bothered by Charlotte’s hair for the first time. It was a mess. And all the shirtless men was just NOT DONE around ladies. And unmarried ladies hanging around men unchaperoned. Anachronistic madness!

Smug Tori who loves the sound of her own voice. Ugh — how I wish she was the very first to be voted off.
Same. Can’t stand her. Ugh.

Quite a few cheftestants among the James Beard nominees. On a very quick scan I saw Kevin, Tiffani, Isaac, Tiffany, Sheldon and Jamie. I’m sure I probably missed some.

Congrats to Jessie Diggins for winning USA’s last medal of the games, a silver in the 30k freestyle. She looked about dead when she crossed the line, but she did it!
Jessie Diggins is a BADASS. She said afterward that she had food poisoning 30 hours before the race! Meanwhile, I can barely get off the sofa after a short night of sleep. That she was able to medal is amazing. The first non-European to medal in the event.

P/C beautiful but not alien.

Welp.
This S/K routine is putting me to sleep. Everything pales beside alien.

Is it just me or was Nathan Chen’s applause for H/D a lot less heartfelt than for C/B? Same, Nathan, same.

C/B were so good. I just love that program. So sad they had the bobble in the RD that will probably keep them off the podium.

U.S. goes 1-2 in monobob! A discipline which is just damn fun to say.
I also missed all but the celebration because I was watching ice dance.

So monumental for Erin Jackson for so many reasons. First Black woman to win speed skating gold and ends a long U.S. drought. I just read she started speed skating only 5 years ago! That is amazing!

So bummed about C/B.

Somebody is going to use some version of the headline “Golden Oldies,” aren’t they?

Right?!? I loved watching him and the Italian guy with their arms around each other cheering on their partners .
That was a lovely display of sportsmanship.
Seriously, I had never heard of mixed snowboard cross when the evening started, and now I think it’s one of the most important things ever. The Olympics, man!
What an amazing race and outcome. So thrilled for my fellow olds. My heart is still pounding.

What. A. Mess.
If she gets to compete, there will be no credibility left with the IOC (what they had left) or the doping regulations. It’ll be “anything goes, the powerful can get away with whatever they want.”

Hirano dared the judges to eff it up again. Thankfully they did not.
I’m sad Shaun didn’t get a medal, but I think it really was a long shot this time.

I second the announcer’s bafflement at Hirano not being in first. I admittedly am a casual viewer of half-pipe, but that run seemed obviously superior to any other so far to my eyes.

Yikes about Vincent. I’m worried about all the U.S. skaters now since they were all together in the team section. I hope they were diligent with the mask-wearing. And I really hope Nathan and Vincent haven’t been hanging out.
Could Ilia even get into the Olympic bubble at this point given the advance Covid testing requirements? Or can Vincent even be subbed for at this point since he’s already competed?

I actually wonder what convos between David Pelletier and his now-wife Katia Gordeeva are like re: the SLC scandal.
Wait, what? 😮 Wow, I had no idea they were a couple!
So glad Chock and Bates won. I get that their FD isn’t everyone’s cup of tea, but I applaud them for doing interesting routines that aren’t the overwrought passion sneer face “romance” programs that are so prevalent. I couldn’t stand Virtue/Moir for that reason, and the same goes for Hubbell/Donohue.

I had the same Whaaaaat? reaction. People absolutely do go to Asheville just for the food — I’m one of them! My friends and I plan our trips there around all the different places we want to eat and how many we can fit in. It is such a foodie city.
I’m happy for Ashleigh but would have given Buddha the win. I REALLY want his Parkerhouse rolls. And I don’t like carrot cake, but I’d like to taste Demarr’s.
