Pie

Like so many local, county and state fairs that didn't run last year across not only Missouri but also the U.S., this year's Smithton Town and Country Fair is back, and revised!

I joke gifted some mac and cheese candy canes, those might be just a tad worse.

Pie.  It's delicious.  Sometimes, it's nutritious.  And, it's a fun word to say.  PIE.   So that's why it's a big deal that The Central Missouri Agriculture Club is having their 11th Pie Contest.

I'm sure a lot of you are getting ready for some tasty treats today.  There may be a few jokes about fruitcake.  Maybe people DON'T hate fruitcake as much as you think.  In a new survey of people's favorite Christmas desserts, fruitcake only finished behind cookies and eggnog.  It beat out candy canes and gingerbread.

The Central Missouri Agriculture Club will have their Pie Contest, Auction and Banquet on January 25. It’ll take place at the Pork Place at the Missouri State Fairgrounds.
