Food for Thought

The past month has been a bit of a catering feat, and have FINALLY come up for a gasp of air! I keep thinking every day, "I need to post" and now weeks have passed. The legislative session is basically kicking my rear end and all our teams' with a bevy of receptions, conferences, parties and more and more. My poor staff were drooping like wilted tulips at the end of last week. I never saw such excitement at the mention of a two-day weekend!

Am currently sipping a yummy cup of hot chocolate and dipping a homemade ginger molasses cookie in it, as I have been slacking on my Two-a-Day-Cookie-Quota.

All-in-all it has been a busy stretch including the following events....

Number One: A small grease fire in which I panicked in front of my staff and proceeded to forget the safety meeting tips I had just learned the previous day (so that was exceedingly embarrassing!), hence we had another safety fire meeting the next day.

Secondly, we received a Letter of Recognition from United States Senator Mark Begich at a Chamber of Commerce event we catered, which was very supportive, complimentary of our business and congratulating us on our Fifth Year Anniversary!

Thirdly, am honored to be a featured speaker at the Alaska Women's Expo on April 6th at Centennial Hall with my mother as a local story of supportive mom and career driven daughter!

In closing, I love to hear feedback so if anyone has comments or even questions on our catering, tips for your own event, recipes you need assistance with, I am here to help!

Here are a few foodie pics to tide you over until next time...uh, oh my stomach is growling now.
