Chris & BenintheJack – thanks for the votes. I will give everyone another few reasons to vote for me. Who else would drive 420.75 miles/6 hours 20 minutes just to go to a bakery for a free cheesecake and to relive the memories? I can still see Mr. Campbell in his bakers whites – I always thought the white shoes on a man weren’t right! nd I can probably credit part of my love of cooking/baking and subsequent culinary degree to – Mr. Cambell, Mr. Jimmy Angelo of Angelo’s, and Jeanne Marie Powers Peet my home ec teacher at Manhattan Academy.

I’m voting for Melissa Linkinhoker because she is passionate about baking and grew up visiting this bakery. If Marcel Proust can publish his memories of a madeleine cookie, then Melissa deserves a little treat to boost her childhood memories of this bakery. Best of luck to Mitchell in his new interprise!

Melissa Linkinhoker is my choice. She knocks it out of the park, and is outrageous enough to drive that far to compete! Go for it!
