Wonderful! Congratulations. Well done. I'll bring the fresh out of the
oven bread. Might even try baking biscuits in the convection oven. When's
the party? Polly

Yippppeeeee, and Congratulations for a GREAT job well done.

Why just this morning I was thinking I should have put my zucchini/
walnut bread into the competition. Even my hubby eats it so I think I
would win. <g>

Nice going, Barb. AnnE

Have you ever thought of going into business and selling your stuff at
farmers markets, etc???
Seriously. Obviously you are very good at what you do. Why not sell
your stuff???
I'd buy it.

YES YOU CAN, GIRL!!! (pun intended) I worried that I had missed the
ribbon report. This makes up for a year or two when the powers that be
slighted your powers of preservation.

Congrats!!! Cindy

Major snip. I just couldn't STAND reading of your triumphs one more
time!
Barb, that is fan-effin-tastic. I'd try every one of those goodies in
a blink -- well, with the exception of the dirt chunks.

I think she ought to be obligated to sample the "pickled dirt chunks" at
least once if they garnered her that freakin' blue ribbon, don't you?
Its *time*, IMO. LOL

It's the very least she should do. Foisting off untested dirt chunks
on an unsuspecting panel of judges ... disgraceful.

Better yet for a boutique canning company. That way they would end up
in stores where I could -
