We're back from our little holiday hiatus. Did you miss us? (Don't answer that.) Luckily, "Top Chef" has been on hiatus too. So try to remember back two weeks when that last new episode aired...

Martha Stewart was the guest judge for the Quickfire Challenge, which was to create a "holiday one-pot wonder." Our local girl Jamie chose to make sea scallops over a potato and kale stew. Martha liked the dish, calling the scallop "perfectly cooked," but the win went to Ariane.

The Elimination Challenge was to cook for 250 people at an amfAR charity event. They'd have to base their dishes on one of the days from the "12 Days of Christmas" song. Jamie got seven, or "seven swans a-swimming." For whatever reason, this made her choose, once again, scallops, this time "swimming" in a vichyssoise. Most of her prep that night involved cleaning the scallops.
