Thanks to everyone who baked pies and gave of their time to stuff their... I mean... judge! The competition was fierce in all categories - Fruit, Vegetable, Period, and a day-of addition in honor of one of our past Seneschales, Illadore: "Stolen" Pie. Puns and fun were very popular this year. And yet clear winners emerged, bringing GLORY to themselves and their baking skills! <BR><BR>

<LI>Lady Rosalia won the Vegetable category with er Octo-Pie...mouthwatering <SPAN class=yshortcuts id=lw_1289409144_0 style="CURSOR: hand; BORDER-BOTTOM: #366388 2px dotted">chicken pot pies</SPAN> in the shape of Octopi.
<LI>Maestra Gianna was victorious in the Fruit category with her Not Round <SPAN class=yshortcuts id=lw_1289409144_1 style="CURSOR: hand; BORDER-BOTTOM: #366388 2px dotted">Apple Pie</SPAN>
<LI>Lady Elss successfully defended her title from last year of Period Pie-Master Supreme-o with her offering, "Pigeon" Pie.
<LI>Levity reigned as the people declared THLady Rufina the winner of the "Stolen" Pie category. Her Pea-Can Pie, shamelessly stolen from "<SPAN class=yshortcuts id=lw_1289409144_2>When Harry Met Sally</SPAN>", was an unopened can of peas in a pie plate. Nice!<BR></LI></UL>
Enjoy your Glory, winners, for it shall only last one year, unless you can successfully defend yourselves from the amazing cooks of the Barony next November. Especially those gentles who came in very close seconds: Lord Pavel with his <SPAN class=yshortcuts id=lw_1289409144_3 style="BACKGROUND: #dceeff; CURSOR: hand; COLOR: #000; BORDER-BOTTOM: #366388 2px dotted">Pumpkin Pie from scratch</SPAN>, Jackie with her Pumpkin Spice Macaroons, Our own Baroness <SPAN class=yshortcuts id=lw_1289409144_4>Ariella</SPAN> with her Apple-Cranberry Tart, and THLady <SPAN class=yshortcuts id=lw_1289409144_5 style="CURSOR: hand; BORDER-BOTTOM: #366388 2px dotted">Myfanwy</SPAN> with her Period Rice Tart (my fave!).
