2010 Pillsbury Bake-Off
Pillsbury's 2010 $1 million contest took place against the backdrop of  Mickey & Goofy at Florida's Disneyworld.

Some 35+ CCC members
were among the 100 Finalists who competed for the big prize. The final four which included our very own Kellie were flown to appear on the Oprah Winfrey shown on NBC television in Chicago on April 14, 2010.  On the show, various TV segments highlighted the excitement of the Pillsbury Bake-Off and the announcement for the grand prize winner.

CCC... obviously is delighted our very own Kellie made it to the final four and we hope that each member thru the forum, letters or personal phone calls give a warm show of congrats to one of the family.  In the end, we all feel like winners when any one of our members gets this far in a competition as big as the Pillsbury Bake-Off.

The following TV pictures are a glimpse of the program and the final winner being announced with fanfare for the 44th Annual Pillsbury Bake-Off.
