Turned out to be a beautiful day for a bridal shower. I was so blessed to provide some nosh & nibbles for this very special event. The home, where we served, was beautiful but do you know what made it so? The gracious hostess was generous and sincere. The reflection of her down-to-earth family style & bright spirit radiated in her family and home. I’m so fortunate to meet beautiful people … now that I have made room for them, on this new journey, they just keep popping up!
Let’s get started… (I forgot photos of the beautiful beverage station that the hostess created)
…local summer squash layered with garden fresh oregano, lemon thyme and local garlic. (that’s my lovely lavender and hydrangea)
this dish was the direct inspiration of my most fabulous Aunt Marge… Martha Stewart, you wish you were as clever as this gal. salmon mouse stuffed lilies.
local beets with cheve, topped with a local blackberry and raspberry (ours) balsamic sauce.
local, free-range eggs frittatas made in a variety of shapes and flavors… including local asparagus, local mushrooms, and organic quinoa
mediterranean chicken salad… local and free-range chicken with organic fennel and raisins in wonton cups
more frittatas and an organic, local field greens salad (B&H Organic) served with an organic orzo, almond salad made with an organic arugula pesto… veggies platter with fat-fee tzatziki
refreshing watermelon gazpacho…
time for dessert… per the client’s request we prepared dessert in jars. we used local cherries for a cherry cobbler and…
… made a lemoncello tart and topped with a local blueberry and raspberry sauce sweetened with organic agave….
and how could we forget nature’s candy… we helped it out a bit with ghirardelli dipped strawberries and fun fruit kabobs with my home grown mint, local cherries and blackberries.
i’m so pretty… oh so pretty…
