It's Fair Time and we love to participate, support and serve The Huntingdon County Fair!!! So much fun to exhibit baked goods, garden harvest and of course some handmade goodness too. This is my 45th year to participate. In those 45 years I've been honored to earn 2 "Big Ribbons"! That all changed during judging on Sunday. When I learned I received 3 - yes, three of those BIG, beautiful rosette ribbons!!! I never imagined it could or would happen. So honored, thrilled and just plain excited. First place and Best of Show in Apiary for my Honey Orange Yeast Bread, First place and Best of Show in Scrapbooking for my Friends layout and First place and Best of Show in Maple Products for my Maple/Hickory/Pecan Chiffon Cake. So excited to be in the company of childhood friends and neighbors!
Moral to the story: Participate in your local fair! You'll be surprised with the outcome and it may just put a smile on your face. We enter with no expectations and certainly know that there are others out there far more talented. It's all about family tradition and family fun!
