The Results Are In
Len was the big winner of the night with 16 correct picks on his ballot (tied with Andrea). I think they are both happy, it is the first time either of them has beaten me (will my brain ever return to it's before pregnancy abilities?). It was a good night, people dressed up, they seemed to like the food I made (menu to follow), the dancers were cool, Alan Arkin won, Forest Whittaker made a good speech, the Will Ferrel/Jack Black song was entertaining and I thought Ellen was pretty funny. How was your Oscar night?

Biggest surprise of the night... had to be the Spinach Gouda Balls. I thought that one of the pizzas would have taken the big prize, but the Balls pulled a big upset. The other surpise of the night was the condiment in a supporting role going to the Soy-Ginger Dipping sauce. Who knew how versatile *AND* tasty soy-ginger could be. Oh... and best dressed... hands down, the celery!
