Woman wins almost every category at county fair no one can find her

The Virginia Kentucky District Fair is trying to find a woman who dominated almost every category. Her name is Linda Skeens. Linda enter many dishes in the county fair earlier this month and no one can find her.

The annual Virginia Kentucky District Fair has been around for over a century and never has anyone won so many categories. Skeens won first, second or third place in almost every cooking and baking category at the fair. She is trending on the internet and yet no one knows how she looks, nor has she come forth to claim her many many ribbons.

People are amazed at how she had time to prepare so many items to enter. These are just a few of the categories Linda Skeens took the top spot:

Best Cake

Best Pie

Best Jelly

Best Applesauce

Best Brownies

Best Apple Butter

Best Pumpkin Butter

Best Spaghetti Sauce

Best Sauerkraut

Best Overall Baked Goods (for her Strawberry Fudge) Linda Skeens also placed in Best Cookies, Best Bread and Best Candy. This lady should be on a reality cooking show!

Linda is not just a bionic superwoman in the kitchen. She also placed in all three embroidery categories as well.

She was contacted, and her reply:

"I'm busy cooking for my family."

From NPR:

MOUSETTE: You do realize that everyone on the internet wants you to cook for them. Thanksgiving dinner, Christmas dinner - they want you to cook it all for them.

LINDA SKEENS: I’m busy cooking for my family.

SUMMERS: Linda Skeens shared that she was diagnosed with leukemia in December, but that the treatment she’s on is working and that cooking for her friends and family helps. She was flattered by the comparisons to the all-time great athletes like NASCAR driver Dale Earnhardt.

(SOUNDBITE OF ARCHIVED RECORDING)

SKEENS: Comparing me to Dale Earnhardt Sr., I said no way I could ever be in his category. He’s my hero.

My first thought: a corrupt relative of the Bidens.

Or, just an outstanding cook. Give the woman her due, until fraud is otherwise proven. 🙂

I hope so. You wouldn't want her to make it on looks alone, after all.

It only took 60 years, but my wife finally figured out how to make Pumpkin Pie taste scrumptious.
Pretty simple too.
She now substitutes Sweet Potatoes for the Pumpkin.
Delicious.

I think the best way to deal with illness or tragedy is to find something to do that will keep your mind off it.

The summer after my mother died I made 350 jars of jam and pickles and was also working full time.

The summer after my father died I had 124 plants in containers to take care of

My first reaction to the headline was “it’s a guy!”

Must have been some Italians there.

Look up “The duck wins” if the reference isn’t obvious enough. :)
