First Curacao Cook-off - October 22, 2011

Following the tradition I had begun in Colorado, we held our first cook-off here in Curacao.  The theme was appetizers – could be hot, could be cold.  We had 14 official entries – a couple of people came with food after the judging – we still ate their food, but they didn’t get to be in the contest.  The first place honors went to the elementary school principal – she made an appetizer she called, To Mexico with Love.  Basically, a tortilla chip-like cracker – with black bean spread, sour cream, a pico de gallo, avocados, and some sort of homemade salsa on top.  Her husband, one of the HS Spanish teachers, took second and our friend Becky took third.  I came in 4th.  About 25 people came – we had a great time eating, drinking, and dancing the night away. 

Check out a few of the pictures above.
