My SIL is a finalist in the Pillsbury Bake Off!

[GEM]

How exciting! She entered several recipes and one of them was chosen as one of the 100 finalists. Thousands and thousands of recipes are entered, so this is a really big deal! She gets a brand new oven and a free trip to Hollywood to compete in the finals! And, here is the big news, if she wins the grand prize - SHE GETS ONE MILLION DOLLARS! That's a one in one hundred shot at a million bucks! The odds are honestly not all that bad. Let's here it for Mandy's "Barbecue Chicken Braid"!!!

.Excellent news! My neighbor got in that a couple years ago and got a free trip to Orlando (how jealous do you think I was?)

I'll be rooting for Mandy and her BBQ chicken braid (whatever it is).

That's so cool . Do you know whether they'll be showing the finals on Food TV again this year? We watched it last year and it was really interesting. Good luck to your SIL.
