Blue Ribbon Picante Sauce

Yep, my picante sauce has been deemed the best in Texas. Or at least the best one entered in the Creative Arts contest at the State Fair of Texas.

It was hot. And it was hot when we visited the State Fair on the last weekend in September. Hell - it will be hot two months from now.

But I will bask in the glory of winning the blue ribbon for the second time. The first time was in 1996. At this rate, I'm due for another blue ribbon in 2020.

By the way, we had a great time at the State Fair this year. My oldest friend, J, met us there to consume mass quantities of beer and laugh like schoolgirls.
