Well….
as you’ve probably guessed by now, it might not be Monday.
Because that’s today. And apparently the judges (who shall be nameless) are having some trouble reaching a consensus. And Judging Rules state clearly that there shall be no twisting of arms, issuing of invective, or threatening to withhold chocolate for purposes of coercion!
So, sorry to keep you waiting, but we want to do a good job and there are so many great entries!

See you tomorrow, good lord willing and the creek don’t rise! And thank you for your patience!
