YEA ME! Another Blue Ribbon!

Went out to the fair last night to meet up with my brother and my girlfriends and had to take a detour to the Cultural Center to see how my scrapbooking entries did in competition. I'm please to say I won another Blue Ribbon. This year in the Photo Scrap Book Page - Two page layout! I didn't even place in that category this last year. I also won a 2nd place Red Ribbon in the Photo Scrap Book Page - Use of Embellishments!

Here's the winners:







Had a good time at the fair last night. Had four beers, caught a buzz, stopped drinking, had the most fabulous London Broil Steak Sandwich with grilled onions, pepper and mushrooms, a Wonder Bar and came home....LOL...so much for acting 21!

A new food stand called "Butcher Boy's" on the Grand Concourse is home to that wonderful sandwich and if you get out to the fair, considering stopping there for lunch or dinner.

I'm taking Connor out to the fair next Friday and my goal that day is to stop at the Bauder's Ice Cream stand and have either a scoop of their fresh Strawberry ice cream or their fresh Peach ice cream, or maybe a scoop of both....once I have that, I will be fair food satisfied...well....maybe...

Wah-hoo!!:) Congrats on your most excellent wins! Of course, you already knew _I_ love those layouts:)

Glad you caught a buzz this year, too, after last year's disappointment in that category;)

Kris,

I was at the fair, too, and in the Cultural Center about 8:00 or so. I was with John and showing him the people I knew who won ribbons and of course, I was impressed with your Blue ribbon. Great Layouts, I also really like the one of your kitty poking his head out of the Christmas tree, too.
Congratulations---I hope you get your prize before January! LOL

Thanks ladies! Your comments mean alot to me. I enter fair competition in honor of my mom. She won countless ribbons for her quilting and crossstitch and I think it's important to continue the tradition as long as I can. I may try other divisions next year.
