My Favorite Pie Contest
Saturday morning
, the Logan County Fair My Favorite Pie contest was held for the second year.
Four outstanding bakers brought their ingredients and mixed and baked their pies in front of the
Lincoln Stage.
At noon the pies were judged by Rita Wilson.
As participation gifts, Darlene Begolka, who is a Tupperware dealer, gave each entrant a Tupperware
pie taker.
First place went to Brandy Dahmn with her “Nancy Byal’s Cider-infused apple pie” recipe
Second place went to Hannah Riedle with her Cherry Pie recipe
Third place went to Mary Riedle with her Gooseberry Pie recipe
Fourth place went to Jeremiah Williams for his Pecan Pie recipe
Among the contestants this year were a grandmother
and granddaughter competing. Mary Riedle baked
a gooseberry pie, while her granddaughter Hannah
prepared cherry.
Each contestant was to bring a pre-made pie to sell at
auction. After the judging was finished, the pies were
taken to the beer tent, where the chili cook-off was
wrapping up, and sold to the highest bidder.
