I was not surprised to see Orchid go. She was cute, had a great smile and was always pleasant and likeable. I think she'd make a great sister-in-law. But not a great star.
I'm rooting for:
Suzy - good personality and food I'd like to learn to make.
Jeff - fun to watch, easy to look at, he made tofu taste good!
Mary Beth - funny, but in the way you like your friends to be funny. But she needs to step it up on the food. Otherwise, she's just a smart ass Martha Stewart without the talent.
The rest can leave any time now, preferably in the following order
Chris - why is he even still here?
Penny - watching mean people is only fun when they're being mean and you can love to hate them. If she were alone on a show. I'd just have a vague memory of hating her and wouldn't watch. Maybe they should pair her up on a show with Mary Beth. That I'd watch!
Whitney - like watching food cook itself. Is she even awake?!
Jyll - Like they've been saying, good food, but too fake. that may change though.
Art has a double face, of expression and illusion.
