MKR recap- The Gatecrashers

That was seriously hectic. For some reason the internet wasn't working at our house. Even Justy super husband couldn't fix it.

But never fear- it is up and running tonight, so I though I would quickly give you a recap for all go you who missed it last night.

So it was the first night of the Gatecrashers, and our first couple were Carly and Tresne. They are from the country. This means that they don't pronounce the "g" in their words. They also have matching pugs who wear clothes, and they don't step on cracks. Which is very different to stepping on "crack" because that would be a different show.  

Carly and Tresne could both work at Lorna Jane because they are into affirmations.  They are going to feed the positive (they are at the wrong dinner party because there is no positive for them to feed in that dinner) Yawn. So 2013. Well I guess they do live in the country. 

On our menu tonight the girls are making a beetroot tart with goats cheese, a massive country size bit of steak with parsnip mash and a jus, and a caramel divine. No no idea what that was either. The girls run into Coles, and then run around Coles and they proceed to buy enough sugar, oil, cream and butter to keep Jenny Craig in business for the next 100 years. When the shopping is over they go home and put their aprons on. Carly says now it all seem real. Just quietly I would have thought the moment the camera crew turned up and filmed them shopping would have been pretty real.

While the girls are cookin, mixin, and doin their prep ( Carly is obviously the ditsy one by now, because apart from being the dessert queen- which I have learnt is MKR code for "you will make a really bad dessert" has also has forgotten how much sugar she has put in the bowl.) We meet the other crashers. We have the mother and daughter Cathy and Anna who are now the resident evils. I can tell this because 1. They are mean and 2. They smirk a lot. Our other crasher are Danielle and Josh. They are stupid, sorry sales reps who have quit their jobs for MKR. ARE THE FREAKIN SERIOUS????

The guest are arriving and checking each other out. Chloe and Kelly have picked Anna and Cathy as their new enemies. I think they may have a point. David is still old and his trophy wife is working out how soon the show will be over so she can dump him. The man pronounces jus- JUS. Not JEW. and then he calls it a gravy. Corrine dies. Of embarrassment.

                         This is Anna and Cathy. They will be playing the role of "Mean" this week

Pete and Manu arrive. Pete is wearing a gingham shirt- well they are in the country. Meanwhile in the kitchen the girls are still cookin, their balsamic is strong, they cool it over the air conditioner vent -which is in the floor.

Air conditioning vents. On the floor? Is that a country thing?

 Carly growls at Trense because she is losing her inner peace.  Carly says their aim is to get all 10's. I'm sorry Carly that is not a positive affirmation. You all think that.

Out comes the dish. Pete and Manu try it. Pete's beautiful blues eyes widen. THEY FORGOT TO DRESS THE ROCKET. Smirks all round the table. Anna doesn't have a fork. Personally I don't think Carly and Tresne would give a fork. (haha) Pete also says there is not enough on the plate. This is bizarre because if you look in the kitchen they have enough to feed the whole flamin town.

Chloe and Kelly are being nice. They have decided to be strategic. Luckily for them the editors have also decided to make new baddies, so their master plan is working.

Back to the kitchen. Tresne is cookin the steak, and mashin the parsnip puree. Tresne positivity is turning into negativity. SHE BURNS THE PARSNIP PUREE. Oh hang on- it's ok, it was just to add drama for the commercial break. The girls remember Manu loves his sauce, jus, gravy, so they give him a big bit. Lucky. He loves it, and the steak. Still a few smirks around the table.  Harry and Christos are being funny- "David said gravy" snigger snigger. 

Back to the kitchen and the girls are gonna smash the caramel. Carly says " Holy snapping turtles" (seriously) Tresne is fangin in the cream (nope, no idea what that means either).  Tragedy- the butterscotch is not set. But its ok -They have made extra. (I told you they had enough to feed the whole town). They are worried it might be too sweet. Really girls, you think chocolate brownie,salted caramel, toffee popcorn and butterscotch would be too sweet?? Out comes dessert. 

Pete and Manu give each other "the look". The couples smirk at each other. The dessert is too sweet. Never saw that coming.

The girls get scored. Anna and Cathy are mean, David and Corrine are mean, and everyone else is ok. They score 74, and the sound man forgets to get out of the shot and you can see him standing in the background.

Tonight we head to Bogern Australia to see if Chloe and Kelly can redeem themselves.  ( I can say this because I am from Perth and they are Bogans. They served Yellow as their posh champagne. It is not champagne or posh) They say they "Will smash it". Sigh.
