Mom Wins Again

After a 10 year hiatus, Mom Grady decided to re-enter the Creedmoor 4th of July Cake Baking Contest. In the past she had walked away with four (maybe five) 1st place ribbons ($50 check) and one 2nd and 3rd place ribbon. The 2nd and 3rd place cakes both happened to be carrot cakes. According to her Cake Baking Contest Journal (she really does have one) she noted that she just didn’t think a carrot cake could take the blue ribbon. I guess the 10 year break gave her time to come up with the carrot cake that could actually take home the prize. She entered yet another carrot cake this year and her name was called out as the 1st place winner. A lot of family and friends were there to cheer her on.  Her cake was delicious and definitely deserved 1st place (although I didn’t taste the rest).

Congratulations Mom!
