Wow, we received submissions from Iowa, Oklahoma, New York, and many other towns in between with people gushing over their favorite producers. Into my inbox came a stream of passionately written e-mails about (to name a few) local eggs, creamy goat cheese, and chocolate truffles. We’ve discovered some amazing new artisans that we hope to share with you soon here on Foodzie.
Congratulations to Katherine for her winning entry! She wrote a Blues song for Blue Baker. We were impressed and we hope you enjoy. Maybe we can convince her to sing it for us. 
A Blues song for Blue Baker (think of me soulfully singing with a guitar on my lap and a fedora on my knee…maybe throw a harmonic in there too
I have the blues before sunrise,
waiting in line for an everything bagel with cream cheese.
I have the blues before sunrise,
adoring the array of baked pastries, oh may I have a Nutty Muddy Water latte, please.
It was a wonderful feeling,
Now babe, a feeling I do despise.
I have to leave, leave you baby,
But I’ll be back before noon.
I have to leave you baby,
I’m coming back for my Quattro Formaggio Wood-fired pizza real, real soon.
I’m gonna pack up and leave you darling
but make sure no one sits in my favourite booth. Ahh…yea…baby.
I have to leave, leave you baby,
But there is still dinner
I’m gonna leave you baby,
perhaps I’ll have a Caesar salad or a soup with bread bowl-owl-owl.
I’m gonna pack up and leave you darling
But you know I don’t wanna go…cause today is rosemary kalamata olive bread day baby, ahhh yea.
Well now goodbye, goodbye baby,
I’ll see when I’m home from college one weekend soon.
Well now goodbye baby,
I still expect there to be no one sitting in my favourite booth, cause you know I’ll kick ‘em out, ahh bluesy baby.
You can go ahead now little darling,
Keep on making those daily breads of yours, shiner bock beer bread and jalepeno cheese too, but for now… I’ll just take my cinnamon roll for the rooooooaaaaad.
