That is hilarious!<br /><br />Thanks for the fun read, you brought back all my positive memories of this fun event.

Sadly, I've let those muscles atrophy over the years so I missed out on some great food.Carrie Oliverhttp://artisanbeefinstitute.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7173052990851751381.post-5299607814849150452010-09-07T23:48:07.544-04:002010-09-07T23:48:07.544-04:00thanks Diane! i just linked to your recap as well....thanks Diane! i just linked to your recap as well.
