Its been a crazy summer!

So wow I'm not the best at this whole blog thing. I can admit it! So with that said I have a lot to update. Im so happy to report that I've been cooking like mad! With catering all kinds of fun parties baby blessings, friend get togethers, work dinner parties, birthdays and more! Plus cooking classes which I love! Last month was a brunch theme. We made mini frittatas, almond crusted french toast with home made syrup and raspberries, maple glazed bacon and an orange-pineapple yogurt smoothie. It was delicious! The latest party I catered was a Mexican Fiesta at the Kandells beautiful home. The night started out crazy with a rain storm and traffic! Oh the traffic it took me and my friend Tiffany (who saved my life that night!) 1 1/2 hours to get there! which should have been more like 20 min. Then we arrived and quickly set up for the night. I made Langostine (mini lobster tail) Ceviche and Chorizo wrapped in bacon for the appetizers along with Chips, Salsa and Guacamole. Then the usual Spanish rice and beans. Grilled Corn on the cob with a chile-lime sauce and queso fresco. A sweet corn salad and a watermelon and cherry fruit platter. The night was finished with Churros in a dulce de leche coconut sauce and some lime sherbert. Yumm what a feast it was, not to mention the Taco Truck and a mechanical bull. It was amazing!
So the next events Im working on will be Cooking class at Aubree's house this month and then Jodees daughter Averys birthday party in an orchard. Its going to be ridiculously cute! I cant wait!
