Hello Everyone!!

Although I'm way behind in your epic race for an incredible prize! I could not be happier with the amazing support and help from my family and friends!

After dropping out of Masters I expected a lot of disapproving looks and negative comments but everyone has been so supportive and even more so since i've finally decided to pursue my calling in cooking!

Over 600 votes is an amount I never dreamed of reaching! Its very uplifting and inspiring!

And now there is flyers just off to print and people offering to distribute them nationwide! Hopefully it will be enough to get me in to the final someway or another! Even thinking about it makes me smile and I'm sure it'd make my Grandmother proud seen as she still pulls out her recipe cards with Ballymaloe written in the top corner!

As well as thanking everyone who's voted so far id like to thank Shane the "IT" guy who fixed my link earlier in the competition when it wasn't going onto Facebook properly!
