Strawberry Jam Showdown

Today brought on our Strawberry Jam Showdown between Ashlee Ward & Lindsay Bowerman. They prepared the contest area and placed the jam in similiar brown bags. They even provided real butter and the world's best Shirley's Rolls. The tasting began... many of us had to eat several before coming up with our favorite and soon we were out of rolls. Everyone placed their votes on secret ballots and Josh was our official tally boy. The winner was Ashlee by one vote (a virtual tie), but the real winners were all of us at Pebbles who were treated to such fresh yummy strawberry jam. Our next showdown is Monday in the category of fresh salsa between me and Maria Larson. Game on! If we play our cards right, we figure we can have a real good treat once a week at Pebbles :)

Looks like you all had a great time with your strawberry jam show down. Bet both jams were delicious. Next week...salsa. Sounds like you're on to a new idea :)
