Is there anything more delicious than a homemade pie?
Nearly 100 people got their fill of the homemade pies at the pie baking contest and spaghetti dinner hosted by Maple Crest Senior Living Village on Friday.
This year, 24 pies were entered and judged in three different categories.
Suzanne McReynolds won Best of Show with her Cherry Pie, winning the $100.00 grand prize. Each winner in the other categories received $50 for first, $25 for second and $15 for third place.
Velvet was out enjoying the Sunday afternoon weather while riding in a carrier attached to the back of a bicycle.
His "parents" agreed that a spin around town is his favorite activity.
The pup is at home with Ruth and Rick Grihalva of Forever in Stitches fame. To see another view of Velvet, visit the mural on the side of their building north of the Presbyterian Church.
A brief Introduction…
Throughout my life, I’ve always appreciated the lives, and history of the people I’ve met. I love hearing their stories, stories I hope to share with you in these interviews.
I feel that no matter who we are, or where we come from, our roots grow deep and wide, and even though we may not know each other well, we are all a valuable, meaningful part of the same community.
Maple Crest Senior Living Community, Bluffton, will host its annual fall pie-baking contest, with over $300 in cash prizes on Friday, Nov. 6.
A spaghetti supper from 4:30 to 6:30 p.m. takes place the evening of the contest.
The cost is $7 for a spaghetti dinner with breadsticks, salad, dessert (the contest pies), and a beverage.
Persons attending may bid on the pies in the silent auction beginning at 4:30 p.m. Each pie has an $8 opening bid. All proceeds will benefit the Maple Crest Activities Program.
