Minicap: Hell’s Kitchen


HKEP8GORDONCAR

Hell’s Kitchen picked up on Tuesday night with a discussion on the importance of leadership and how being chosen as your team’s leader literally means you will do nothing except hand your kitchen over to the weakest member of your team. Is that some kind of irony, or what?

The two teams proceed to humiliate themselves in front of Wolfgang Puck, as our professional cooks prove themselves inept at making both spaghetti and pizza–two basic dishes that I myself literally cooked in my very own kitchen last week. Successfully, I might add, unlike the slop featured onscreen. Servicemen from U.S. Coast Guard arrive in the dining room to add some extra pressure to dinner service, which goes swimmingly in one kitchen and no so well in the other, mostly because someone has an owie in his neck. Much dramatic yelling ensues, with Jonathon and Natalie blaming each other for mistakes, Paul and Will trying to wrangle the team members, and Tommy acting like a damn stoner. What else is new?

The lead up to yet another dismissal is packed full of Gordon telling everyone to fuck off, Carrie toddling around like a ditz, Jonathon cussin’ but good, Natalie crying like a girl, and Elise being a bitch. You know, the usual. Get the gory details later this week in the full recap!

BlueCanary is as unorthodox a blend of optimistic and bitter, laid-back and anxious, motivated and straight up lazy tas one is likely to meet outside an unspecified institution. She spent the past decade holding a variety of job titles, including reporter, tech writer, production manager, and administrative assistant (the go-to job in this economy for folks who just HAD to get that English degree). She is currently living under the tiny yet powerful thumb of an awesome, pint-sized little dude, who wets himself and can't form full sentences (read: stay at home mom). Another tyrannical little thumb is gestating in her womb. She is a regular on The Neutral Corner podcast and blogs at www.mamamuzzle.com. 

Blue's as-yet-unpublished YA novel, The Nature of Echoes, is currently a Quarterfinalist in the Amazon Breakthrough Novel Award contest.
