Congratulations to Georgia Weller from Michigan, who went home $25,000 richer and the new World's Champion Chili Cook. Penny Hansell went home $1,000 richer for becoming the World's Championship Salsa Winner of 1996. Both gals will be back next year to defend their titles.

  We had the luxury of having Chef Paul Prudhomme with us all weekend providing us with a great Gourmet Cooking Demonstration Thursday evening, a great Gourmet dinner on Friday, and judging the "final" table on Sunday. Actor Cliff Robertson, Actress & cable TV Hostess, Ruta Lee; world-renowned set designer Jerry Wunderlich, Young & Restless's Jeannie Cooper were all on hand to help us celebrate our 30th Anniversary.
