Spoiler!

By the way Blake acted I think not only did he expect to go home, but thought that Melinda shouldn't have went. But I am excited! Last year I didn't watch after Chris got kicked off, I didn't care. Now I have a reason to watch next week. :lol:

Jordins last song gave me goosebumps, i love how she does that song.

Simon always has comments about the songs and the ages of the songs and contestants. He is just jealous that he is not young anymore lol

paula

This is my thought on Jordin........this young lady is the whole AI package! I think she is just an awesome wonderful young talent! I am also so happy over last night finale 2 show!

I like simon very much, but when he makes remarks like, you are 17!!!!! and you should not be singing a song like that! gggggggggrrrrrrrrrrrrrr. The girl shows so much emotion when she sings, well I do not want to ramble here, lol I guess you know who I want to be THE idol for this season :D

Now that everyone has seen the show or heard the results I am going to say it.

I jumped up and down when they said Melinda was going home!!! I am just so happy. I could not bare to even watch her sing. She did have talent and I will not deny her that but she didn't have the AI package as another member put it. She did not carry herself well and she certainly did not have the look. She made that surprised look again last night when they gave her the mic to sing her last song. The omg I get to perform again... :huh:

Jordin is simply amazing. So what if she is 17, she appears to act much more mature than she is. I think she is very pretty and she just has some awesome talent.

Blake is also very talented. I liked him all along but I hope Jordin wins.

I was so tired when it was on, i was only listening, then at one point i completely fall asleep then i heard them say it was time to eliminate and i tried to open my eyes. I woke up more when they said jordin was safe, i was like great, now blake will go home. Then when they said melinda its time for you to go, i jumped out of bed and screamed, my more hubby came running up thinking something was wrong with me lol. Then i was so happy i could not go back to bed.

I dont care who wins, because i love them both, but i still want blake to win lol.

hi will i guess ill be the odd one out here and say how discusted i was that melinda was voted out. same with la kisha. im not 16 and frankly think there is enough teeny boppers out there with a microphone in their hands. jordan is talented but she is only 17 and frankly not good looking at all. blake is nice looking and a good singer but the minute he starts that beat boxing crap i want to flick the channel. i take solace in the fact other than kelly the winner of this show never really goes anywhere and that the people who come 3rd and 4th do.

just my 2 cents

I agree. :lol: This is what I thought would happen right in the beginning. I like Melinda and she'll do good with a recording career but I wanted the actual winner to be one of the younger kids. I remember how important music was when I was a teenager and I think eigher Blake or Jordin will be great as Idols. :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

I thought it was rude the other night when he was making his predictions of who HE thought should be in the final 2. Hahaha...in your face Simon.

I just love all the different opinions on here! I personally like Melinda, but at the same time think that Jordin and Blake are the two right people in the finale. Melinda is very talented, but isn't the right package to be the the winner. She's going to get a recording contract and reach a different audience than the "average" idol viewer. My 13 year old surprised me when she told me that she wants to buy Melinda's C D when it comes out.

We're all rooting for Jordin here - she's pretty, talented, energetic and seems genuinely sweet and enthusiastic.

I'm from the same town as Blake and one of my HS friends went to see him last week and got a pretty close shot of him that she emailed to me. She was pretty excited to get to go see him.

I finally got around to watching the 2 shows from last week yesterday. The look on Simon's face was priceless when Melinda was sent home! It was fun to see Elliot come back and sing!!

I enjoyed Tuesday's show. I'm still rooting for Jordin to win! I did like Blake, but as the weeks have gone on, I really like him less and less for some reason.

      I checked consumer labs that I'm a member of they independently check products for safely and claims the wolfs was rated great and bobs redmill buckwheat cereal. Ultra low gotten no dangerous levels of arsenic heavy metals, mold, yeast etc. plus they mention to refrigerate. I wonder if the raw buckwheat they rinse bc it's not toasted like kasha. Toasted removes the grassy taste I have to try the one you mentioned. I also bought Qia which is a quinoa mixed got great reviews.

      makes sense. sometimes you learn one path and never question it until you see someone take a different path

      Interesting I read that toasted kasha groats have nutty flavor which I thought like oatmeal with banana and yogurt. Yes quinoa I have for dinner looking to switch oatmeal to buckwheat for breakfast. I have to look into amaranth

      I've never tried bananas or yogurt with kasha. It would probably work but in my mind I think of kasha as being on the savory side so I always add butter, peanut butter, or shredded cheddar cheese. Next time I make it I will try yogurt and banana to see for myself. Amaranth has a touch of sweet and I like to pair it with fruit. Quinoa is more neutral. I eat it plain, like rice, with chicken stock or other savory things, or with coconut milk. Since coconut milk works, I would think yogurt would work (with the quinoa). I went to the link you posted. I really don't know why they rinse the kasha. I've eaten it for decades and never rinsed it. Other than that, her recipe seems fine (that is, add the buckwheat with the water, rather than wait until the water is boiling). She does say something that I forgot: you want to get roasted/toasted buckwheat or you will need to toast it yourself. I've never tried buckwheat flakes. One potential issue with flakes is that there are more processing steps and as a rule of thumb, every processing step is another opportunity for cross-contamination. I have tried something that was a finer grind of the buckwheat than the whole/coarse and I didn't like it as much. But, maybe that was simply because it wasn't "normal" to me, I don't know.

      The basic seems more like oatmeal. You can also add yogurt banana to it like oatmeal right. I see rinsing as first step in basic recipes like this one https://busycooks.com/how-to-cook-toasted-buckwheat-groats-kasha/ I don't understand why since kasha is toasted and not raw. What about buckwheat flake cereal or is this better to go with.
