Two years ago I had the pleasure of meeting some of JAP's best cooks. Jane, Connie, Sherri, Nancy, Thea, and Dee. I did not give last names girls you can do that if you wish. We had the best time ever. I will never forget the fun we had. I am hoping we can do that again this year. Our sweet Jane organized a little cooking competiton contest, It was all done on the grill I was paired with Connie. Thea with Dee and Sherri with Nancy. Correct me if I'm wrong. We had the best time ever. Connie & I took first place and this dessert dish was born that day. We made a Papaya Compote. Love you girls.
