PIE
with a side
of bourbon

We’re only a few weeks out from the Kentucky Derby.  And while I am not an avid follower of horse racing, I’ll take any excuse to eat Derby Pie.  Kentucky is famous for originating a lot of foods, actually.  The Hot Brown and Mutton BBQ are just a tiny corner of the paddock.  This next Call is from Paducah (Kentucky), a 3 hours drive from Louisville (the home of the Derby), but I’m betting I can still get Derby Pie there.  Don’t miss this great show opportunity…

Check out this Call for Entries from the Yeiser Art Center (Paducah, KY) for Paducah Photo 2014.  $10 entry AND $2500 in cash awards…
