    Great pictures and looks like a heck of a good time. Sorry I couldn't make it but got called offshore.  

    Location- Just "this side" of Biloxi, Ms.

    Status- Standing by.

    The greatest barrier against all wisdom, the stronghold against knowledge itself, is the single thought, in ones mind, that they already have it all figured out.

    Great photos Kristi! Really wish we'd have run into each other so I could thank you for all the recipes I've stolen off your blog in the past couple years! Again, great photos, I feel like I'm there again!

    Kristi, it was great to meet you and John!  Greta pics, except the Cuban sandwich one with half my ugly mug in it!

    my favorite is the one where @piney is working hard on holding a camera on the Carolina pork while @kdp slaves over the egg. 

    It it was our first fest, definitely not the last. You are correct, the eggheads are the best part.

    Kristi, great write up and fantastic photos as usual. And great to finally meet you and John and to get to chat after all these years of using your recipes.   And thanks for jumping in and helping me serve when my crew wandered off on another food quest!   

    @yolks--wish I had known that was you eating my Cubans, we gotta address the nametag for board members issue next year somehow.

    It was my pleasure to help! Of course, I didn't help until after I got a few good shots. :)  Great getting to know you!
    @theyolksonyou: I had to go back and look! Glad I got half of you in there!

    Kristi, so great to see you and John again.  I wish we'd had time to visit.  Thanks so much for posting yet another great post which truly captures what this Eggfest is all about, through your pictures and your comments.  I shared this post on Facebook, so our friends who wonder what we do, and why we do it, can finally understand.  We hope to see you at Porkopolis!!
