Greetings Eggheads,

The O-fish-al Julie (Mainegg) countdown clock is at 80 days and 06 hours.. :woohoo: Poot and I thought we would give you an update and pass on some important information. Ticket sales have been good. We are at the half way mark with attendees. There are only 18 cook tickets left! So don't delay!!! The deck is limited to 400 so if you want to come, book soon.
Rooms at the Crown Plaza Resort (host hotel) are still available but going fast. The Tuckaway has Egghead packages with tasters tickets and rooms for one low price. (Great Deal) I think there are 3 left.
Demo egg sales are good but you need to hurry!!!!
The price of these eggs WILL go up appox 8% after January 31st.
The Ceramic Iron Chef competition is heating up. If you want to compete, you need to send LC an email. Who will win this year? For details about Ceramic Iron Chef visit: http://www.sunshinestateeggfest.com/chef.html

Demo classes will again be held throughout the day. Our resident Eggdom Chef (yes, she is a real chef) LC will be demonstrating her Leaping Frog Cornish Hens (and maybe Quail :woohoo: ) and Pork Roulade. Zippy Lip will show you how to make the perfect pizza. Poot may also show us how to make his award winning wings. (God help us all. :woohoo: :blink: ) 044-2.jpg

So if you are tired of all the cold weather and snow, you may want to take a breather.....and come to the Sunshine State.... :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: Hope to see everyone there.

    Can't wait. Fri/Sat tickets purchased..Hotel Booked..Plane tickets purchased. This will be our 1st fest and by the look of the photos on the Fest site it should be fun. Now if one of the local Melbourne Eggers could post directions to the liquor store we will be all set. ;)

    Many choices within 5 minutes and the hotel also has a indoor and outdoor bar. Last year they rolled out what was left of the keg for the afterparty

    Well isn’t this just something, they are planning a little get together of something like 400 guest all gathered on the East Coast of FLORIDA only 200 feet from the OCEAN and they have the nerve not to invite the SNOW and ICE, just what are they thinking. Then there will be a bunch of those green smoker/grill/oven things that use this lump stuff to cook great FOOD. Now there is talk of some kind of a Chef with Iron thing going on; I won’t be able to do that as I don’t do Iron. Now when it comes to Wings they could be in some real trouble if I decide to get into that little deal.
    KayNOcook and I have our room, Cooks tickets, Menu all figured out and some Cooks Seasoning all ready to go.
    We will arrive very early Friday so we can be ready for the Meet and Greet. After we check in to our room it will be down to the Beach to pick up a dozen or so GOLD DABLOOONS at the Seashore and after that we will cast our line into the surf and catch and release a few Tarpon on Fly tackle.
    Late afternoon we will be hanging out in the Lobby to lend a hand to all the fine Eggheads as they arrive.
    Yes we are LOOKING FORWARD TO ANOTHER GREAT EGGFEST, no we are not VERY EGGcited at all. But we are LOOKING so forward to spending some Quality time with old and new friends.

    Looking forward to my first Sunshine Eggfest, cooking with my 15 year old daughter. My wife and 17 year old will be cruising to Mexico that week so I decided to drive down to Melborne, cook, eat, and drink myself into a stupor. My youngest daughter has sworn off beef, pork, and chicken so I hope there will be good seafood/vegetarian selections from other cooks (?).
