Day 66: And We Have a Winner . . .

The winner of the very first -- but not the last -- Yummy or Yucky Fun and Exciting Contest is . . .

"ek"!

The winning answer was "melted mint chocolate chip ice cream." The thing photographed was the dregs of a quart of Baskin Robbins Mint Chocolate Chip ice cream, my favorite flavor in the whole wide world. Clearly, my camera is not giving perfect color fidelity because the non-winning answers included:

-- "Lard with olive tapenade" (my personal favorite)
-- "Buttercream frosting with cherries"
-- "Red velvet cake with creamcheese frosting"
-- "mint ice cream with red beans" (so close!)
-- "crisco with smooshed up red peppers"

And, here is the super prize. One jar of delicious strawberry-raspberry preserves from Tomato Mountain Farm (check them out here), fetched personally this past Saturday by yours truly. Thanks for playing, everybody! And stay tuned for another Fun and Exciting Contest, coming soon.

She doesn't read my blog! Maybe it's my other cousin Eugene. I will do some investigation.

I just deleted a comment from this thread but I want everyone to know that it was not a Stalin-esque purging. The author of the comment requested that I delete the post. I am but an administrative tool!
