And The Winner Is…

congratulations to the winner!

Posted by Rebecca Teti in Food on Thursday, December 03, 2009

Congratulations to Sarah for creating the winning entry in our fall pie contest.

Doesn’t her pie look gorgeous?

She used my recipe, so I am very proud, but I was not one of the judges, so rest assured that didn’t influence matters.

A $40 gift certificate to Pampered Chef is headed her way for her efforts.

Thanks to Emilie Presnall for providing the prize, and to everyone who participated: my friends willing to be corralled as judges, the entrants, and everyone who just stopped by to drool a little.

Do we need a Christmas contest? What would be fun for you?
