2013 Results - December 14

Held this year at Connie's palace. Last year with Lower Wacker Room (we think)
It was a less hectic pace than other years, but a wonderful fun turnout.

Friday Nite: Boug, Con, Sami and Vic - Worked on our refrigerator doughs after a great dinner at Cilantro.
We made five different and headed to bed around 1am.
Saturday: After our traditional breakfast of Bacon & Eggs (eek, do we have enough??) we pre-heated ovens around 10am and set to making more doughs.

Cari showed up with a car-load - Karlene (our awesome 'Hot Pan!' Runner - came complete with her own oven mitts. She also had her middle daughter Emme and Em's friend Angel.

Around 1pm just as we were getting ready for lunch - Kaffy and Ashley showed up - with some pre-made doughs by Chef Ashley.
Nikki, Vic's most reliable friend - popped in for her longest stretch and made some of her regulars and even invented a new one.
Finally, Con's buddy Bill stopped by - and even Aproned Up despite not baking.
We missed a couple of our regular chefs due to schedule conflicts; hopefully they'll be back next year! (Ose, Pixie, Deb)
