Y. graduate's dish placed on Red Lobster's menu

Congratulation on the Red Lobster menu deal. Having watched her on several of the shows I find her "energy" a little too much, but wish her all the best.

Go Kelsey! As a Cougar alum I've seen you before on BYU Weekly. I'm rooting for your all the way. I really think you are the best on the show. I hope you made it. Regardless of what happens, you have a great future ahead. Congratulations for having the guts to go for it.

I missed the show Sunday night. I didn't realize we had one of our own competing.
Who was kicked off.

Normally I don't cheer for BYU in anything but I like this girl and she is the nicest most humble person ever. Martha Stewart is lame, who cares what she thinks.

WHAT A CUTIE!

Yes,Funeral potatoes!

Martha Stewart was the ice queen on that episode. Kelsey's perkiness got no traction on that sheer monolith. (I love Martha Stewart but, whoa, she was cold.)

I think Kelsey has a chance to win (if the finally is not already shot and in the can).

Interesting show but most of the people should have gone home on the last episode. If they were firecrackers I would have asked for my money back, half of them were duds.

My guess is the food network already has "perky" with Rachel Ray and Giada De Laurentis so they will chose another a personality of another type.

Nipa (not sure of spelling) was kicked off.

Kelsey's energy a little too much....that is the way Kelsey is. She is a very upbeat, bubbly person. Being a teacher at Weber High where she went she was always this way. She isn't faking it and trying to go overboard like they have said but she has been herself.

As for the Martha episode. Kelsey did an internship for Martha Stewart so as much as Martha didn't like the Sloppy Jane's, Martha probably acted cold towards her because of the internship she had done.

Good Luck Kelsey..I'm rooting for you!

Great, now I have to go to Red Lobster and wonder if I am eating something created by a Y graduate.... and probably served to me by a U graduate.... how appetizing :)

I also know Kelsey a little, having been on the same double date with her. It's true, she is genuinely that perky and upbeat, so it is frustrating that some of the judges have labeled her as fake or over the top. She is completely herself and I hope she gets the win!

I agree that Kelsey was overly energetic last week, and that she improved greatly this week. I believe her to be one of the top two or three contenders. She's got everything they are looking for (a personality, cooking talent, etc.) except for possibly a unique culinary point of view.

Kelsey has a great personality. Like others, I also went on a double date with her. Even though we just went to Hogi Yogi, we had a great time.

I thought then that she had the talent to be a star on reality television.

I went on a double date with Kelsey, too. I'm going to really laugh if those of us talking about it were all on the same one. :o)

Go, Kelsey.

This only clinched the way I feel about Martha Stewart. She thinks she's way too good for the normal person and inexpensive food that most of us prepare. I would not watch her in any show, she is so fake.....Good luck Kelsey!

I really enjoy watching Kelsey and truly believe she has what it takes to win!

Martha Stewart is a stuck up snob anyway... Real people do eat sloppy joes.

Kelsey is the only one left on the show that I would watch - and I do watch a lot of Food Network. Go Kelsey!

Yeah, Martha never had to eat sloppy joes during her prison term? When I worked in Juvenile Hall in Salt Lake, sloppy joes were a weekly offering.

Double dating and Martha Stewart - What a combo! Maybe Kelsey needs to go on a double date with Martha to add some "oomph" to that woman's life. Maybe take Martha to a burger burn or something so she can add some Americana back in her life, instead of snooty food. Good luck, girl!

How can you not like Martha? I loved her before she went to prison, I thought she was a class act because she did go, unlike so many other white collar criminals we could name. Martha brought high quality style to the everyday. She deserves all her success. I'm glad they put some professional make-up and did Kelseys hair. She looks much better on TV now. She will have to lower her wattage to stay on TV. I hope she wins, she seems like she lives for this.
