A (Second) Message from George the Third, by the Grace of God, King of Great Britain, France, and Ireland, Defender of the Faith, and so forth:
Dearest Peasants:
I have heard your pleas for my return, and behold, your kind and benevolent monarch is here. I have graced you yet again with my presence to share the results of last weekend’s Red, White, and Blueberry Booth Contest. May I say first and foremost that We were very impressed with your efforts. His majesty approves!
Winners were as follow:
Category: Articles of Confection (Best Blueberry-Themed Food Product
Winner: THE BISTRO - Lemon Blueberry Goat Cheese Stuffed Donuts
Category: Give Me LibARTy (Most Creative Blueberry-Theme Art or Craft)
Winner: THREADBEAR - Mooberry
Category: Decoration of Independence (Most Festive Booth)
Winner: JONNY POPPERS - You Look Like the 4th of July (Makes me want a hamburger real bad)
A dignified nod of appreciation to you all.
Onward and upward, dearest peasants, to this week’s Peach Festival Booth Contest. This week the categories are as follow:
Unimpeachable Taste (Best Peach-Themed Food Product)
Peachy Keen (Most “Keen” Peach-Themed Art or Craft)
Pretty as a Peach (Most Festive Booth Decoration)
As previously announced, the prize for your efforts is a clean, crisp $50 bill (as the British Pound is slightly down against the dollar, that’s approximately £39.54). Your chance for glory can be found here.
Now, I know you will all be busy, reveling in your former rebellion with multicolored pyrotechnics and fire-charred meats, so I will leave you at your leisure. Hope to see all your peach-themed goods in the week that follows!
Happy Treason Day!!!

P.S. I’ve moved on from Bridgerton to Queen Charlotte. There is just something so familiar about that devilishly handsome King!
