Well, my feelings would be hurt if I hadn't lost out to such great competitors. As it is, I can only congratulate them ...... and figure out better bribes for next year ..... hehe!

It was great fun! Y'all did a grand job with the judging!

Good, kayak, 'cause yours was another one-of-a-kind sorta house that was hard to even rank in a linear order with the orders. God Bless the White House pastry chef!

Mudboy, it looks like they're not forming a posse to kill us.

Which is good, because this is about to happen ALL OVER again, if you know what I mean! I say, this next time, let's take our time and tell them to wait until Saturday for an answer, OK? This judging is *hard* work! Especially with all the drinking involved. I need some time to get sober. ;)

"and figure out better bribes for next year"

In the bribe category, I was partial to daisyscarlett's gingerbread man that was animated by bites being taken out of him! Wherever do these hostesses FIND these things?!!

And thanks again to Billie! That as the most *beautifully* decorated thread.
