Kitchen Challenge!


Three days, $10,000.00 and Two teams.
Team one Neeraja, Sparkle Josh, Scott, Kim and Adriana. Team two Hippie Josh, Robb, Will, Christine and Todd.

On Team one Scott had some serious back problems but the team worked around it and were able to not let it hinder them, What did hinder them was their Team Captain Neeraja not measuring the counter top prior to buying the tile, a basic mistake that cost them dearly. As far as I saw Adriana kicked butt with the carpentry as she was the only carpenter on the team and Sparkle Josh did amazing work with the shopping. Neeraja and Kim left the tile work unfinished because they ran out of time and materials.

Team two finished everything but the look was not all that cohesive, it was "Tuscany" but why? they took away storage for a fountain and used all man made materials, I understand they were on a budget but put something real in there. There was much drama on that team, lots of standing around and discussing, but at least they finished.

Both families loved the kitchen, had team two's kitchen been finished I think it would of been the clear winner.

Sparkle Josh continues to surprise me, he's all feather and rhinestones but he can do a room totally opposite that and it will shine.

Neeraja got cut because of poor planning and Hippie Josh because of his leadership, it's too bad I would of like to have actually seen his "green" design.
