Burnt Offerings Contest...

The Bethel Mennonite Church, where Candace and her family are members, hosted their first-ever Burnt Offerings BBQ Cook-Off and Pie and Cake Contest almost three weeks ago. The contest raised funds for the youth ministry. Contestants could either enter the BBQ section or submit a Pie or Cake to be judged. Candace entered a traditional South African recipe, Melktert, (or Milk Tart) into the contest. :-) The photo here shows Candace and her mom with their entries.
