Sophia & her winning pie |
Imagine
if you will a delicious pie recipe created in Saskatchewan in the 1950’s by
Maggie’s Mom (Helen Patterson), being resurrected in Green Lake (1/2 an hour south
east of 100 Mile House) this summer (2012) and just this weekend the same
recipe winning a pie competition at the Metchosin Day Fall Fair 60 years later. Sophia, my niece, decided to enter the pie
contest at the local country fair. With the help of my Sour Cream Rhubarb Pie
video and blog she made the pastry and the strawberry only filling (no fresh
rhubarb available) and with her mom’s help (my sister Marie-Térèse) packaged it
carefully up and headed for the fair. And this is the result of her baking
efforts as told by her mom in an email;
Sophia received 3 ribbons
for her Strawberry Sour Cream Pie at the Metchosin Day Fall Fair Pie
competition today.
1. Best pie in category of entrants 11 years old and under
2. Best Berry Pie
And...
3. Grand Prize (big blue ribbon) best in show -for the best of all pies in
any category.

Congratulations Sophia…job well done!
