Hi Challengeers.

Now that our Canada winners have had a little bit of time in the spotlight, it's time to give a cheer to all those who didn't quite make it to the top, but did very well.

While the number of entries each week remains fairly low, I'll only be posting the top 30, instead of the top 40.

So if your entry appears on any of these lists, you did very well. Give yourself a pat on the back.

Love, Deb
