Happy Post-Apocalypse, everybody! I’m really jazzed that the world didn’t end today, because not only did I get to have pie for breakfast, lunch and dinner, but the Secret Santa who drew my name at work gave me a giant caramel-filled chocolate bar and a stack of blank DVDs (the card that came with them said I should only use them to make porn compilations, which made me a little uncomfortable since my Secret Santa was a 57-year-old grandmother of twelve). Anyhow, the fact that it just flipped over into December 22nd, 2012 means that we will not be left hanging as to how this season of Top Chef Seattle is going to turn out, which is a huge relief for everyone, and by that I mean you guys are probably just like me…

01 Stefan Richter Gets Flipped Off By Josie Smith-Malave Small Top Chef 1007 26
dying to watch one of these people win $125,000.00

I thought Top Chef Season Seven (that Sucked) had a high asshole quotient, but I think Seattle is starting to really give them a run for the title. Right now, the only people I’m finding the least bit likable are: Sir Barts-a-lot, Lizzie Borden, Stoner Sheldon and Top Model Kristen… and she has questionable taste in men who resemble appendages. I really hope it doesn’t come down to a Finale where we don’t give a fuck who wins as long as THEY STOP TALKING FOREVAAAAAAH.

So last week was a learning experience for everyone involved…

02 Chris Pratt Makes Angry Face Top Chef 1007 27
this guy learned why you shouldn’t always order wild boar if it’s on the menu

03 Eliza Gavin Has Weird Eyes Top Chef 1007 29
then Eleyeza learned that thanking the Judges for hating your food does not keep you from getting sent home

04 Tom Colicchio Has A Headache Top Chef 1007 28
and Daddy Tom learned that he spoke prematurely about the amazing talent of this cast

We open on the Stew Room, where Lizzie Borden and StacheBear are talking about the dearly departed Eleyeza, and how much they will miss her…

05 Josh Valentine Lizzie Binder Talk Eliza Gavin Top Chef 1007 30
that chick had freaky fuckin’ eyes, tho, won’t miss that

Meanwhile Rapunzel is explaining to the others that her critique from the judges was mainly “You seem so nervous.” and she appears to be mightily puzzled over how they picked up on that, especially so soon after, you know, she told them she was nervous. It is a mystery how this girl is still in this competition…

06 Danyele Mcpherson Finally Gets A Makeover Top Chef 1007 00
perhaps she has magical powers

    How is Blowsie still here? I’ve was expecting Daddy Tom to send her home as soon as he could for that turkey. And are her teeth to big for her to close her mouth. Her mouth is always open.

    I didn’t catch Stefan’s wave or comment. All I saw was him trying to Hater and Blosie flipping him off. Only thing I got out of that fight, is that he finds Blowsie as grating as the rest of the world.

    Lucky Chunky and Chica! I’m pretty sure all my cat is getting is coal. But she’s only 7 months old. So maybe Santa will give her a pass this year. Since it is her 1st Christmas.

    “…but I’m gonna call bullshit and say she picked him because they’re both gingers and she wants to bang him…”

    Wow, until I read that sentence, I wasn’t sure that “projectile vomiting” was a real thing. Thanks for clearing that up for me.

    BTW, you owe me $200 for a new monitor.

    I’ll have an interest in Last Chance Kitchen once UniBall is off. He has to have used up at least 8 of his lives thus far. Once Blowsie and Stachebear are sent packing, the next eliminated chef after that is when Last Chance gets very interesting.
    Confused, as well, over the whole Stefan and Blowsie blow-up. Next week looks REALLY interesting when she goes totally apesh*t while the other contestants look on with open mouths.
    Stefan is always such a flirt. He finds the cutest girl in the group and becomes her constant companion. Remember when he did that to Jamie/Turtle even though she’s gay?? I think that she even told him something along the lines of “You know I’m gay, right?”

    If every dish was inexplicably served with a tongue depressor maybe we could solve our nations obesity problem. I feel so fat right now…

    just wanted to say a big thank you for adding on the last chance kitchen crap. mildly interested but don’t want to add to the time invested in this show. I guess I’ll vote Kristen? but we’ll see. I want to like stachebear (Is that what you call him?) But he makes it hard.
    Merry Christmas J-Mo! and all the gasmics!

    J-Mo, your recaps are great! Thank you!

    I’m still puzzled at that cake Top Model made. Is it really possible to make that cake in less than 30 min and to bake it in the foil?? Amazing or bs??

    I liked Stephanie, but girlfriend is resembling a cavewoman with that hair! I was LMAO at your Yoda talk! :D

    J-Mo – your kitty christmas porn is adorable! Danke for that and the recap.

    Lord, let there be a Houdini challenge that requires these asshats to pick out their fish while in a tank in a straitjacket. What?? There would be someone to pull them out if they panic…eventually…

    Blowsie – you make me hate beavers, and chipmunks, and pianos (the white keys). Oh, and having to cheer CJ, if and when you get to the Last Chance Kitchen. You make me irrationally hate things!!! And based on the roller derby, more of her crackling and whooping and probably lame cooking. Hate!!!

    Thumby – my husband hates him. In an obsenity strewn diatribe way that he unleashed last night. It was a nice moment between us. :)

    This season is coming close to the fucktard nightmare that was forced on us during the DC season. Otherwise known as “NO FUCKING WAY!!” Top Chef.

    Team Super Model – she’s tall and looks good without makeup, so I should hate her. But, hey she is talented and seems sweet.

    Aw damn it’s good to be back and to find a J-Mo recap up, with all it’s glorious photos, captions, snark and hilarity.

    I just got out of the hospital tonight (having been there since Monday – yes, Christmas Eve).

    Double yay!

    Aww, thanks, LAC. I was for awhile and now I’m crossing my fingers that it doesn’t come back (partial intestinal blockage treated with “gut rest” ie a clear liquid only diet. For three. Effing. Days. McRib :-) Yum mm.

    I left the hospital and went straight for a

    Great recap, J-Mo!

    Even Helen Keller could’ve told that there was a pineapple in that foil package Hater-Tots picked, not a “pot of herbs”! Asshole!

    I can’t believe Bart put the foil on his head to make his bowl – kinda’ made me wonder if the judges would refuse to taste his food, but maybe they didn’t see that.

    Moley and his raw-ass Lamb! What else can I say? Except that maybe he should have named his girls Anise and Artemisia. Or Bay Leaf and Basil?

    Gail called it at the berry farm – Blowsie was trippin’ for sure. She must have tasted the crack instead of the crab when she was preparing things for her dish (I can’t really say “making” her dish, ‘cuz she didn’t do much of that). Blowsie should have gone home. I am SO tired of her.

    I say Top Model for the win!!!!

    Lots O’ Love

    Bay Leaf and Basil

    I don’t think Blowsie passed the “keep your hands to yourself” part of Kindergarten and that face noogie she pulled on poor Lizzie Borden, geeze. She can’t seem to keep her hands off the poor woman. She is beyond annoying.

    Hater-Tots is a tattle-tale. He didn’t add the part about the tuna not being “sustainable” until way late in the game. He was like chicken-licken, “IT’S FROZEN TUNA!” Yeah, we heard you the first time, but I thought he was gonna win by his own stunning culinary skills not some douchey move like that. “Daddy Tom, he’s using frozen tuna!”

    Had to be one of the funniest episodes ever, but your recap took it over the top. Fabulous job!
