Pie Auctions are new to me but local Wisconsin folk say it's a tradition. The Lions Club that we belong to has a full day festival for our main fund raiser of the year. A Pie Auction is part of it. I have helped in many capacities before and this year I added baking a pie - a 10 inch blueberry pie with fancy cut outs baked on top. It sold for....$55.00! A few went for higher but most were less than that. My name was announced before the bidding and that I was a farmer's daughter from east central Illinois. Don't know what caused the serious bidding but I am so tickled over being able to contribute in that way.
Should have taken a photo of it....
