Disha tells feyironchef (12), "There!  Ah think Ah'm as done as Ah'm likely ta be!"
Lera tells feyironchef (12), "Five minutes remaining."
Domino tells feyironchef (12), "well really, who'd want to eat an ogre paladin?  For that matter, how often does one find an ogre paladin?  Klumpp possibly excepted"

Morian tells feyironchef (12), "Me lord Kade can clearly barely stand the smell..."
Phemme tells feyironchef (12), "/sits at the table, no pretense of manners visible, ready to dig in to Nuare's offerings"
Arriella tells feyironchef (12), "*looks at the hummus and waits for the others to taste it"
Thaevek tells feyironchef (12), "Morian, I can't help but notice we have a female kerra in the audience now. I guess it's not relevant to the contest, but seemed worth announcing anyway"

Gumgum tells feyironchef (12), "" wonders if she missed her turn. those damn cartoons."

Ashtari tells feyironchef (12), "*is totally prepared to throw a diversion to help wyld out*"
Gnobrin tells feyironchef (12), "the salad was indeed particularly ingestable, Gwidion.  I do question the use of cashews in it, but that's your choice.."
Thaevek tells feyironchef (12), "Hi there, kitty! Want to play a game of cat and--whoops is this mic still on?"
Arriella tells feyironchef (12), "Mmmmm very nice. I love the cashews on top!"
Morian tells feyironchef (12), "Again, it is clear that our judges are horrified.  they can barely stomach the salad."
Phemme tells feyironchef (12), "/can hardly wait for the next dish"
Arriella tells feyironchef (12), "*picks up somemore cashews and eats them seperately. leaving most of the salad*"

Kade tells feyironchef (12), "*is tempted to throw a cashew at Thaevek for that one*"
Morian tells feyironchef (12), "it looks like there are cat-shoes on the lobsters.  I think this actually makes them lob-shoes"
Wyldfyre tells feyironchef (12), "*Only tries the fruits, breads, etc, leaving any meats alone for the real judges*"
Arriella tells feyironchef (12), "*grabs the lobster and begins tearing into it whole heartedly*"
Phemme tells feyironchef (12), "ohhhh"
Gwidion tells feyironchef (12), "to the side he places the side dish of carrot-apple pudding with a decorative cashew edging"
Morian tells feyironchef (12), "if i'm not mistaken, Thaevek, using lob-shoes may actually disqualify Gwidion from the competition1"
