The annual cook off was just announced at St. Marta’s parish.  Last year Krissy Carpenter won with her world famous chocolate chip cookies and rumor has it she is planning on baking chocolate chip banana bread this year which has caused quite a stir around town.  Sarah Smith was heard saying “totally not fair her baking chocolate chip anything I am going to speak to Sally to get her disqualified the day of so she does not have time to dream up another chocolate chip anything”.   Krissy is new to town and the parish so her winning was a tough pill for the women of the parish to shallow.

The pill gets even larger as Krissy is nice, pretty,smart, sexy and not married, did I say not married yes not married.  So every man in town has his eye on her and what she going to bake next hoping for a sample.  As of today she declined all invitations to dinner or a movie and as it seems only has one close friend in town, Mark.  Mark Brothers is the owner of the floral shop in town and impossibility handsome.  He does not have a girlfriend nor does he seem to be interested in dating.  The relationship between Krissy and Mark as far as the women of the parish can tell is not a steamy romance much to their dismay.

Krissy and Mark have registered for the cook off as a team and in fact were the first to register.  Sally Ray Jones the head of the women’s club and all fundraising at the parish is beside her self as Sarah and the others disagree and are gossiping about the decision Sally made to let them register as a team.
