Blue Ribbon and Best of Show for Bread Making!

I won, I won!!!

A couple of years ago I would not have ever thought about entering into the Tennessee State Fair. I was visiting with a friend and her mom came by. While there she tried some of my bread and she said, "You should enter it into the fair!" Did these things actually still occur, I wondered? I checked into it last year and found out that I could enter, but I did not have time to figure it all out. I thought about it again a few weeks ago and went online to check it out. It was two days until the deadline so I entered online for two baked products for myself and one for my son (8). So after work, soccer practice and two parent teacher meetings yesterday, we came home and madly cooked. I made Pumpkin Bread, Bohemian Bread, and my son made Black Bottom Cup Cakes.

I delivered everything at 7ish this morning and stopped by after work to find out what happened. The pumpkin bread and the cupcakes did not place, but my bread won a blue ribbon and "Best of Show," Totally COOL! I can't tell you how long it has been since I won anything. I forgot how much fun it is! We are so going to do this again next year.

When I went to check on it after work, I did not expect to win so I only had my cell phone to take pictures. Here are the pics that I got:
