10/02/09 LIFE'S SHORT, EAT DESERT FIRST




Friday, 8:30 AM. 48 degrees, wind NE, gale force. Skies are overcast with dark rain clouds, and the channel is rough, covered with whitecaps. The barometer is confused. It is going to be a rough opening day for Apple Fest. A ferry trip today will be better than a carnival ride.
I was a judge at the annual pie contest before dinner yesterday evening, there are a number of categories, I was a judge of Commercial Baked Pies. All pies are judged on appearance, taste, and crust, and assigned a grade of one to five on each trait, five being the highest grade. Most pies I tasted were very good, one or two were wonderful. I take pie judging seriously and have done it for several years. From 6:00 to 8:00 PM the public was invited to have pie and coffee at the Pavilion, a great bargain at $2.00.
