Judgment Weekend

This weekend is a big one for us Sheepshead Bites’ editors, because from grill to runway, we’re making judgments.

You may have already read that Ned Berke, editor-in-chief of this blog, will be a judge in today’s widely publicized Grillin’ On The Bay BBQ and Chili contest. He’ll be doing his best to stop by the Sheepshead Bites’ table to meet as many of you who visit, but don’t be surprised if he’s too busy chomping on barbecued delicacies to meet all of you.

For those of you who are willing to settle for second Sheepshead Bites’ best, I’ll be at the table. Knowing that the temperature is going to start off freezing, I can’t wait to warm my tummy with some hot chili and not have to worry about figuring out which one is the best. I’ll just save my judging skills for Sunday, March 28, when I will help pick the winner of the Third Annual Miss Brooklyn Scholarship Pageant.

The pageant will be held from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. at the Levenson Theater at Brooklyn College, and as far as I know there are still tickets available($25 each) for the pageant and for the coronation party ($15) for those who would like to attend. You can check the official Miss Brooklyn website for information.

This competition is a preliminary event to the Miss New York pageant, so the ladies need your support in making it to the top. Plus, I’ll need your support, because choosing the best queen to replace our own Keelie Sheridan and to represent Kings from these lovely young women will not be easy.
