So far anyway. I'm usally proven wrong with these types of assessments but for now, I like her a great deal.

Reg. her meals...I think she's doing o.k. so far. I don't think she's knocked socks off anyone yet, but she hasn't landed in the bottom either. And, the judges have been complimentary from time to time.

I adore this woman! That smile of hers, when she is tickled, is just freaking precious. When Adriane won the Today show challenge she radiated genuine, pure excitment for her friend.

I don't think she can win because they look for that cutting edge innovation and one who goes over the edge. I don't see that in her or not yet, anyway.

I loved the preview of her quote next week, when talking about the guest judge.... "Gail? Oh, Gail?"

I thought the same thing, she really is such a sweet soul. I don't think she'll win either but I hope she knows that there are fans of the show who just love her sparkling personality.

Hootie...

That, along with Fabio's comment about it being "Top Chef" (not "Top Scallop"), had me cracking up.

Hootie?
Hootie?

Carla has been growing on me this season. She's quite funny and so incredibly sweet.

Hoo.

Carla for Fan Favorite! Hopefully she sticks around for a while so that she'll actually be in contention for the award.

That would be awesome. I really like her a lot. But yeah, don't think she will be in the finale.

Tom did say there was one cheftestant in the finale who he was surprised made it. At first I was thinking Eugene, but now I'm wondering (hoping) that maybe it might be Carla.

Stephan, Hosea, Leah, & Jeff seem to be the ones to beat right now.

But I'd love to see Carla stay because her palate seems better than some (Jamie & Michelle come to mind), and I love her quirky personality.

I hope you are right. I like Carla.
