Back in September I entered a contest through Food and Wine Magazine. It was a an online, food photo contest. So I sent off one of my favorite pictures from this site, a picture of a
frozen treat, cooling yoghurt and strawberry pops. Made back in July, they were some of the last confections put together in my old kitchen in California. Well, look closely, in the bottom, left-hand corner of the gallery of pictures from
FoodAndWine.com.
I never win anything! Seriously. No trips to Cancun, no new washers and dryers, and certainly not the Lotto. (Because if I did, it's hard for me to say if I would be toiling away in front of my computer, and not lounging about on a lush, tropical island.) And while I did not
win this food photo contest, I did win honorable mention. This means my photo is on display on the site. Pretty exciting, at least for me anyway. I guess from this point on, I will no longer be the girl who never wins anything, but rather, the girl who sort of wins something. I only hope that I am up for all of the challenges that this new title brings.

Congrats! The original picture you posted here inspired me to try making them (to the delight of my fiance)...glad that they brought you some recognition. Keep taking those photos!
Your picture was one of my favorites...my daughter thought it was the best (next to mine, of course.) I'm the vanilla wafers with whipped cream.
Love your blog.
