The winning event? Outstanding in the Field. (More on this, below - and there's a pâté … Continue reading Something outstanding.
Yep, you read that correctly. Because sometimes, pizza is the answer. Also: It will be easier to find this post, later, if the title includes the word "pizza" instead of some weird, abstract, unrelated string of words like I usually give to posts that have recipes.
