Family Cook-off

Twice a year or so, my family has a themed cook-off.  This time it was a French theme.  I spent days looking for recipes to make.  I found a Le Cordon Bleu cookbook and figured that would be a good place to look.  I ended up deciding on a ham and cheese quiche, but didn't think that it would be a winner, since usually a dessert wins.  I found these cookies that looked delicious and thought maybe I'd win something with those. 
Well, after a bunch of things going wrong...lets just say that the cookies didn't win anything. 
After an evening full of delicious food, it was time for the winners.  We all voted, and it was quite tough because we had a lot of yummy choices. I wasn't expecting anything but I ended up winning.....
!

That's more than I've ever won in any cook off before! I didn't think I'd win anything for a quiche, but I was very excited! 
Third place went to Alesha for her Creme Brulee - Delicous
First place went to...drumroll please..
Crystal for Pot de Creme. 
Scrumptious little cups of chocolate.

The next theme is yet to be determined, and this time maybe I'll do better than second!
