Hello My Dearest Foodies,
I am very sorry for being so late again, but I was all day with my daughter and our little rascals and I got home very late. I can barely keep my eyes open as I am writing this, lol. But here I am with all the PRIZES from our HONORABLE GUEST JUDGE @puravidaville . Although, the job was very challenging, she did it with flying colors and this what she has to say:
"Thank you to all of the participants and @lenasveganliving for making this contest possible. Although I am fairly new to the contest, I can already tell that Fruits and Veggies Monday will go another year (at least), piece of cake! I look forward to its continued success. And thanks again, folks, for having me as an honorable judge; an honor it was.
P.s. did everyone see @kremena.shtereva, with a (30) rep and her second post ever, come out of the gate swinging? Extra big applause to you, my friend."
And now, please BIG ROUND OF APPLAUSE to this amazing young lady, the winners and to OUR FRUITS AND VEGGIES FAMILY!!!

π Really?!! Sooo sorry I just noticed! We went to Lisboa yesterday for a suuuperlong weekend. That's why I just read the winner announcement. Thank you so much @puravidaville for choosing my entry for the first prize and thank you again @lenasveganliving for one year of this beautiful contest! That's amazing! I won the anniversary edition! π I didn't expect this. Wait !- that means I am the guest judge next week? Ah, ok. Great! That's good because I needed to skip my participation ... (we are just coming back on monday) and concentrade only on the job as the guest judge. πππ» Already curious about the coming articles ...
CONGRATULATIONS Sweetie, well deserved 1st PRIZE. You are one of those who have been with me since the beginning and I am happy to have you as the HONORABLE GUEST JUDGE next week. I am glad that it fits into your schedule. π πππΏπππ
Thank you so much Lena. It's a great honor to me! π I am looking forward ...
Hahaβ¦ this is the best victory speech. Youβre going to do great as a judge. @plantstoplanks told me to βjust follow your heartβ, no sweat. Great job with your jackfruit curry! It looks like it turned out perfectly.
Enjoy your vacay @pusteblume π€ͺ
Thank you so much! We really enjoy it here! Lisboa is a fantastic city. I think you can be here for one year - not working, just walking and watching and you wouldn't have seen everything. It's really amazing! Ahm - well - you shouldn't mind that it smells of dried cod and fried pork almost everywhere ... π It's not the most veganfriendly city at all though I think it's getting better slowly... I am doing ok.
It sounds perfect! That aroma you speak of does not sound perfect but things have a way of becoming endearing when we are on vacation π. Happy to hear youβre having such a good time. See you on Monday @pusteblume.
π My heartfelt congratulations to all the other winners! π₯πΎ
