It was so nice to see Rockland Maine  all over the television Wednesday night. The Food Network aired episode of Throwdown with Bobby Flay who was here this past summer to challenge Lynn Archer of the Brass Compass on making Lobster Club Sandwiches. I can always tell when the episode airs because at work we get notes and emails about Chef Anne Mahle’s appearance as one of the expert judges. It’s always fun to watch and see so many familiar faces.

In last nights episode of 207, a local news magazine, there was a segment on the Historic Inns of Rockland’s Pies on Parade. This will be its 6th year and as of right now there are 16 or so locations where you will be able taste both savory and sweet pies. A gal pal and I will be going together this year and I can’t wait. I don’t know about you, but with this photo the fella’s at the Limerock Inn shared, I can almost taste the tartness of the kiwi, the sweetness of the strawberry and the feeling of a blueberry pop in my mouth. Yum-E!

Tickets are $25 for adults and $10 for children. The proceeds go to the Interfaith Outreach Food Pantry in Rockland. Over the last 4 years almost $20,000 has been donated to help families. How great is that!

I love the whole idea of this event and can’t wait to go. Don’t worry I’ll blog about it and of course take photos to share!!

To tide you over until the big event enjoy this video of Frank from the Limerock Inn making their famous (and very very tasty) Key Lime Rock Pie! Get ready to start smacking your lips and adding Key Limes to your shopping list this week.
