| My Chocolate Lemon Bars |
Lexington has an annual Chocolate Lover's Festival. Lauren and I submitted entries to the chocolate desserts contest. I altered a recipe for lemon bars by adding chocolate powder to the crust and drizzling chocolate on top. Lauren made Clementine Chocolates (a friend's recipe, with permission). Both were really yummy! I really thought that Lauren would win. Her presentation far exceeded the other entries, but the judge only took a teeny tiny little piece of the candied skin and chocolate top and didn't even taste the filling. Although neither of us won we enjoyed the process.

| Lauren's Chocolate Clementines Thomas and Pierce participated in a Fear Factor competition. Fortunately, they did the physical challenges because the eating competition got messy--chocolate doesn't make everything good. We also enjoyed looking around at the homemade soaps and eating chocolate. It was an all-around good time. |
