Team Popover: A Recipe Swap Defeat

Coach's Lecture to Team Popover after the Recipe Swap Defeat:

Potato Popovers, Coach "MiniBar" Tequila.
Ladies, listen up. Every month for six months now, we do this. You knew this recipe swap was coming, and you knew I devoted an entire weekend to coach you to a win. Yet here we are. Not a single one of you made it to the Popover goal line. Where I come from, if you fall down, you get right back up and keep on going. How else are you going to get to the championships in someone's belly?

There are some great teams out there who do this Recipe Swap every month and make it to the finish line. This month, we used an old Potato Donuts recipe for inspiration with Dennis, Toni, Sabrina, Lora and Lindsay, and newer teams Mari, Mary, Jennifer, Crissy and Lauren, Pola, Jamie, Claire, Shari, Joy, Monique, Linda, Nicolle, Tricia and Priya. We've got some brand new teams launching this month, too, Rachel, Merry-Jennifer, Alli and Katy. This is the Pac-10 of recipe swapping, ladies, and I want you to think about that every night until you bring your A-game back to this kitchen, like these fine men and women do every time.

Before you go, we need to hash this mess out, armchair-quarterback style, so this doesn't happen again.
