The Virginia Kentucky District Fair may have crowned her champion of Baked Goods, but the internet has made her queen.
, and took best overall in most of those categories as well. A real Renaissance woman for the ages, she even placed in Embroidery and Wall Décor. The comments have christened this phenomenon a"Skeens Sweep."and calls for her and Sharon of “Thanks, Marie Callender” fame to collaborate.
Desperate to talk with Skeens and hopefully find out the secret to her Best Overall Baked Good-winning Strawberry Fudge , I contacted the fair to see if we could get the skinny. Spokesperson Jennifer Sturgill told me that Skeens won 25 of the 29 categories she entered, and contrary to popular belief, she was often not the only entrant — she’s just that good.
As I said, I feel this is understandable; she doesn’t seem to be on social media, and this must be overwhelming for one person to deal with. Sturgill said the fair’s employees are struggling to process the publicity, and there are 15 of them. But honestly, I think I prefer the mystery. As things are, Linda Skeens could be anyone you pass on the street, slipping in to share her miracle brownies with the world, and slipping out again unnoticed, like a bakery Banksy.
