I was not aware that the dress code had changed for this event; in the
past, it was considerably less formal.  This certainly adds a new element
of challenge to the presentation.  

While I could probably adapt some recipes like chicken wings to a headgear
format, I hate to think of someone trying to wear a batch of chili.  Steve,
I'm not sure you thought this completely through before making these plans.
 Could we compromise with, say, a ristra worn as a laurel wreath?  Or maybe
James the Elder might bake a loaf of THE BREAD in the shape of a bowler
hat.  Susan Byers might look good in a tasteful tepin tiara, but really, I
think that's asking for a lot of work.

Well, I'll still try to attend, even though I think it sounds kind of
crazy.  Maybe the local Odd Lots  will have one of those tortilla sombreros
with the salsa bowl in the middle of it, and I can try to blend in with one
of those.
