I know. It’s almost impossible to believe, but I made a mistake last week. You see I post this blog once a week on Friday and it posts on Monday at YourLDSneighborhood.com . So, last week I said I’d post a blog about the Klondike Cook off this week. See the flaw? It’s Friday and the cook off hasn’t happened yet.
So if you came here expecting a report, I’m sorry, my bad. I will be posting my report next week I promise . . . no really. And for those of you who came here today, there is still time. The cook’s meeting is tomorrow morning at 8:30 AM.
