All the designs are beautiful but I think Elizabeth nailed it.

The Jessica one is great too... I think more interesting from a design perspective that the mostly-words ones. I'd love to see it as a finalist.

Oh my, I like this one a lot, too. I'm so excited about this contest.

I like the simplicity of Lucky's design, but Jessica's is the one I'd most like to carry around.

i really like elizabeth's, it conveys the point of this website very well

I like Jessica's best.

I also like Jessica's. It also references the Apartment thing for people not in the know.

I'm disappointed that Jessica's is not a finalist. I love it!

I love Jessica's design too. I think it more subtly conveys The Kitchen's message than Finalist #3 which strikes me as too preachy (to the others not already part of the choir).

I like Elizabeth's.

Oh, Jessica's design is awesome.

Please, please, please whatever design you choose, make sure the name "the kitchen" is totally consistent with how it appears on the blog banner, in all respects (font, spacing, capitalization, etc.).

Pretty please.

awww. i really like jessica's. adorable!

i like jessica's the best

I also really like Jessica's! It's simple yet dramatic, and emphasizes the theme of community to me. C'mon, community is half the reason why we come here, y'all!

With a few tweaks, my vote is for Jessica.

I 'vote' for Jessica as well.
