Hello out there to all my friends. I have done it. I am competing in a contest that if I win, my product will be bottled and marketed. Awesome!! I have to wrap my head around that. Most of you know that I have retired so I am able to pursue my passion of cooking. Please help me win by voting for my Smoke House Pope Pasta Sauce.

Hey all, I joined a new contest. It was kind of like the wine pairing one I did with Bobby Flay, just with this one it was Santa Margherita wine and if I win I get a cooking lesson from Top Chef Season 5 Fabio.

So, if you all don't mind check out the video and vote for me!

I and my group members have received Spam advertisments from two people from this site. I would appreciate it VERY much if NO ONE would do such a thing. My friends and myself to NOT appreciate anybody using this site to gain access to e-mails for their own personal gain.

Blind voting for all 3 sauces took place on Saturday at a private gathering of different folks - with sauces labeled A, B & C. A was Penny Malcolm's, B was Sheryl Robinson's and C was Diana Angenent's. Votes were monitored so that each person could vote only once. Anyway - the race was VERY close - A got 7.5 votes, B got 9 votes and C got 7.5 votes which means that Sheryl Robinson's sauce is Season 1's winning BBQ Sauce - congratulations Sheryl!

The "1/2" vote happened when someone was torn… Continue

Tomorrow is a big shopping day to get all the food for the Saturday party - so fun! I'll be thinking of all of you that day!

Penny and Diana: I am so proud to be in the final three with you girls...can you believe all girls in the final...wow! Good luck to you both...I know all three will be a sensation!

Home Cooking Star Staff: Great job on the competition! I am wishing much success with the taste challenge. I know you are all ready and anxious to see the results also. Thanks for all your hard work!

Hi All - I'm expanding Home Cooking Star for next Season by adding a TV Channel for recipes (just for home cooks) to publish their recipes and meals. I think this will help a competing home cook build a fan base to help with getting more diverse votes (rather than from only their friends and family). I think it will also provide a much better profile of each home cook. You can upload videos and write recipes, etc. based on the channel - visit it soon and sign up:… Continue

Is there a place on the site that has all of the recipes in one spot for easy downloading?

Now that we're done with the contest -- it will be fun to try some of the recipes. We really give credit to all of us 'true' non-professionals -- who are not chefs, don't own restaurants or catering services, etc., and who had fun with delicious recipes as home cooks. There is an amazing amount of talent across this country -- and BBQ certainly has different 'flavors' depending on geography. This being a BBQ Sauce contest, having to do the 'black box' challenge was just that - a real challenge f… Continue

I just wanted to tell everyone that it has been a pleasure "meeting" you all and I think everyone did such a fantastic job throughout this entire contest! I know everyone's sauce is "the best" and so are you! I really don't have the stamina to enter Season Two, but will be poking my head in from time to time to see how everyone's doing. Think I'll stick to entering "recipe" contests that I don't have to work so hard at... and also spend more time working on my cookbook -- guess I just don't have… Continue

Over all, it was a good experience, and I had fun. I'm looking forward… Continue
