Then she can't seem to figure out why she didn't win. Maybe if Bronwen would quit using white and pink on all her cakes and take a few more chances, she may have a chance - not. Good luck to Mary and Courtney, you ladies rock. I would love to see more Challenges but without all the drama from the show.

Now that you mention it, that's kinda the feeling i got, too. With the exception of Bronwen, they all had their stability issues, but that's got to be a sign of the artistic nature of the craft. I'm glad Mary won. I think she produced the most consistently good cakes throughout the competition. The televised program itself relied too much on gimmicks and contrived plot twists for it to be genuine. I've always like the cake challenges, but this one was a little over the top with some of the challenge elements. (Having to vote a competitor off I thought was an awful plot device, the 30-minute cake bake-off was just silly.) It did feel a little too staged, didn’t it?

The only thing that came through to me was that they picked the decorator with the worst attitude and was the most emotionally unstable. She had one good cake (The "who I am" cake with the French/Mexican theme). The firefly was ridiculous and ended up with no plasma ball. The last cake looked stupid-- the proportions were totally wrong and it was MESSY. If we're judging by the final competition, Courtney should have walked away with it. But Bronwyn was the only one who seem to genuinely LIKE what she was doing and take pride in her work. *shrugs* I probably wouldn't watch a challenge like this again because the whole thing felt very...staged.

I LOVED HER CAKE MORE THAN MARY'S... I THINK EVERYBODY WOULD HAVE DONE MUCH BETTER IF THEY WASN'T SO TIRED... THEY WAS JUST TO TIRED TO TAKE ON YET ANOTHER CHALLENGE... THEY WAS ALL EXHAUSTED, I FELT FOR THEM ALL... J T HAD A COMMENT ABOUT BRONWEN NOT WINNING ANY OF THE COMPETIONS... I THINK SHE DOES HER BEST WHEN SHE KNOWS WHAT THE CHALLENGE IS... SHE IS MORE PREPARED... I THINK SHE THOUGHT SHE NAILED IT... I JUST DIDN'T LIKE HER ATTITUDE IN THE WHOLE THING... ONE OF HER COMMENTS ON ONE OF THE SHOWS WAS... "IT'S NOT ALL ABOUT THE MONEY, IT'S THE TITLE"... I THOUGHT WASN'T GOOD SPORTSMANSHIP....

However, I am glad that Mary won. I was hoping for Courtney, but all three deserve to be in the top three spots. MJ just helped eliminate the suspense of it all. However, I am glad that Mary won.
