OK,now you must be needing some people to taste and judge the entries right?You know where I'm going with this don't you?

Laconia Historical · 03-12-2008, 03:07 PM

Absolutely! Why do you think I'm planning this?! I'm hungry myself.

Here's the scoop-- $5 gets you six tastings and a ballot sheet. Doors open at 6:00. Tastings go until 7:00ish. Voting ends at 7:15 pm and winner will be announced around 7:30. Want to try more than six pies? Another $5 gets you another six tastings. All proceeds go to support Laconia Historical's educational programs.

I figure we need at least 15 people to make this event a go, so let me know if you're interested in entering.

We'll also collect recipes from each contestants to include in a French-Canadian cookbook that we'll sell this summer. I'll update the forum when that happens.
