Check this out. Sabra just announced the judges for the Taste Intervention contest. Yours truly, me, is one of the judges. I’m still SHOCKED that they asked me to be a judge. When I look at the other judges I feel so “small” by comparison. These are some very impressive ladies and I am humbled to be a judge along side of them.
