Anyone else catch it last night? Our member Bronwen won!!! Congratulations, Bronwen!

I really was torn between Bronwen's mansion and the other lady (can't think of her name - not the CakeDiva - the other one!) who did the Ringling Mansion. I think the CakeDiva bit off more than she could chew! I also really like the blonde guys.

i absolutely loved bronwen's! it was gorgeous and so clever. i loved the little paintings on the wall in the living room. the details on the windows was amazing also. she absolutely deserved her prize.

my second choice was the Wright modern architecture building. the building and landscape was beautiful. the one thing i thought took away from it, although i know what the decorator was going for, was the stylized trees. i know he was going for the modern look but i feel like they took away from the rest of the natural looking landscape. the whole beauty of that building is the contrast between modern design and the surrounding nature.
i think he did an amazing job working with such a complex piece of architecture.

Bronwen's gingerbread mansion was awesome, and she deserved to win. But, I must say that my heart was with the Wright mansion. I've never seen anything like that attempted in gingerbread, and I was so disappointed when the floor warped. icon_cry.gif

The only thing that I dislike about the challenges is that it seems they never finish their pieces--there's not enough time. I loved Bronwen's mansion, I would love to see it totally finished! Same with the others-I can't remember his name, but the one who did the chocolate work seemed to be the most complete. And that Fallingwater was incredible!
