The Prickleberry Pie Contest Karen Ganger

When a tornado completely destroys Charley and Francine Simson's beloved bed and breakfast, they decide to move on. Finding a forlorn small Southern town that had seen better days in the Ozark Mountains, the opportunity to start over becomes a reality. In a light bulb moment, the Simsons see that the entire community needs revitalization. With determination, Charley elicits help from the townsfolk to renovate the town square and rebuild the economy. Just as improvements materialize, preparing for the Prickleberry Pie Contest, tragedy strikes. Contest excitement intensifies as Chefs James Beard and Julia Child, humorist Irma Bombeck, and country stars Minnie PEarl and Roy Clark come to help out.
