Pie-Baking Contest

It was my first ever! I was so nervous about it too. I agonized whether I should even enter for fear of failure. Ultimately I decided that if I lost, I wouldn't tell anyone and if I won, I could brag about it forever. I entered the two pies in the front here: Peppery Sweet Potato (from our CSA share) and Maple Bourbon Pecan. 2 of the five chefs voted the pecan pie as best tasting and a third judge said it was a close call. There were 3 winners: one in each of the categories - Presentation, Originality and Best-Tasting. Alas, my humble pies did not get the blue ribbons (sniff!), but there's always next year...
