There are 20 chocolate pies with whipped cream in the next contest.  I asked someone to take a picture for me, so hopefully they will.  Wouldn't you just love to dive into these??  --  Not me

The Lady Of The Hour has arrived  --  Glen McNall escorted in the young lady - Now I was informed that there was a cow plop in the trailer she arrived in, but that doesn't count  --  about twenty minutes later the official one arrived and the winner was Karen McNall

Chris Paradee & Bill Blair cook up some mean hamburgers and hot dogs and serve them up with a smile

I can't wait to see the pictures I'm expecting of the pie eating contest.
