Thank you guys so much for all the help with the votes!!! I have some truly amazing friends and family being so supportive with this crazy contest! I have some good and bad news!
GOOD news – I am currently in 1st Place!!! THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!! Now we just have to keep me there!!!🙏🙏🙏 It is a 2x the votes today for a limited time!!!
Bad news – this is going to be going on longer than I first realized. This Thursday I need to stay in 1st to win this round but then there will be a Quarterfinals (July 24th-Aug.3rd), Semifinals (Aug. 4th- Aug 10th) & Finals (Aug 11th - Aug. 17th) rounds so this will be going on till the middle of August. Unfortunately, I will be bugging you guys and you will be seeing my silly mug until either I am no longer in the runnings or until I win!!!
I will need the continued support and votes until then! Remember it is FREE to vote once a day or you can do the champion vote which is a 2 for 1 vote for every $1 you donate to the James Beard Foundation! Thank you again so much for all the votes & support I really appreciate it!!!!! 🙂 THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!! 😍😍
One chef will win $25k, an advertorial feature in Taste of Home, and a cooking experience with Carla hall.
