It'll be even better being me if I manage at least 1 prize on the
weekend. It's Penrith Show, and I've entered some things again -
actually most of the family have.

I've got two pieces of needlework, and 4 lots of baking - boiled
fruitcake (got 2nd last year), banana cake (got 2nd last year),
shortbread (got 1st 28 years ago when I entered it in the junior section
as a 12 yr old!, haven't entered it since), pumpkin scones (not entered
those before - wasn't really happy with the ones I entered, I've done
better, but I didn't have time to bake another batch). I don't expect to
win anything,but it would be nice...

My 11 year old nephew has entered scones, his 9 year old brother has
entered banana cake,carrot cake, chocolate cake and chocolate muffins,
and my brother in law has entered scones and fruitcake (a different type
to the one I made - entered in a different class).

So - wish us all luck! Especially the kids.
