So a few weeks ago I posted that King Arthur baking across America was making a stop here in Birmingham and how thrilled I was and probably more information on KA then you really cared for. They came and I went.

If you have an opportunity to attend one of these demos I would urge you to go, it was fun! So I didn't really learn anything new but I think most everyone else did pick up some pointers. Not that they did not have good information but I've been making pie crust and sweet breads for a long time. But, since that was not my main objective I didn't mind. I am a food nerd and groupie, there I admit it and that is why I went. Like a Trekie at a convention you can't tell me anything new, I just have to go because it's who I am.

The cooking demo was good, it was fun meeting the staff but the best part was the giveaways oh now I've got your attention. I knew they had advertised door prizes yea, yea some measuring spoons or a rubber spatula, no I walked away with 15 pounds of flour, a popover mix, a bowl scraper, and $40 in gift cards! Plus coupons a plenty.

I racked up so well in the door prizes because in the afternoon session I had to take the kids who were out of school. Caleb was thrilled beyond belief that his ticket number was called and he won a bag of flour, "It's the first thing I've won in my whole life."

All in all it was a fun, exciting, and highly profitable day. So if KA is coming to your town GO and if you missed here in Birmingham maybe they will be back.
