Last year we missed this event in just a couple of days...

They have great or even fantastic stickers they hand out it says I love Pie.
Please if they hand them out this year grab them as much as you can.....

Tracey may be upset with me if I traded, that being said I could eat a crap load of pies for what an ABD trip costs!!

Kathy, I'll be there!! I'm actually volunteering for the competition at the Omni in Championsgate (that's the part you see on the Food Network) I'm going to be Pie Security. I can't wait to watch all they do and learn some tricks. Then we'll head over to enjoy loads and loads of Pie on Saturday. We've been going for 5 years and enjoy it every time!

My BIL and MIL enjoyed various chocolate bars at the farmers market in the Las Ramblas area.

Pie security - that must be so much fun! I've watched the pie championships on Food Network and they look like a lot of work for the contestants, but alot of fun. The pies are so creative - how do they come up with these ideas? I would love to attend, but can't! WAH!

I just mentioned this to Jimmy! We'll be there that weekend, and this sounds like fun!

Although, neither of us is a big fan of pie! (Please don't throw anything!!) We're strictly :cake: people! :snooty: :goodvibes

We might just have to check it out! What day are you going, Kathy?
