take me back to last saturday night

 
Twinkle Bell Secret Dinning Fellowship
 

Oh what a night!
 The day started off with a prediction of 60% chance of evening thundershowers but somehow with the kitchen gods watching over us the rain held off and instead presented a cool enchanted evening for Twinkle Bell's debut!
 
The week prior was filled with craziness! Many farms and artisans where visited to supply the dinner's bounty. A big thanks to all whose hard work and dedication to produce beautiful local & organic products.

With the first dinner under are belt we have worked out the glitches and are ready to tackle the next. I'm hoping I can remember to introduce my crew......Ken, Megan, Katie, Cameron, Zoe and Nia. Great job!
Maybe thank Suzanne O'Lucketts for allowing this event to happen!
Oh, and hey Anne, Lisa, Kim, Megan and Dillon for your all support and help.  
Can't forget Nia, who is in the process of uploading a video of the evening, thank you! Cant's forget Lauren for snapping pictures of our guests, merci!

From the bottom of my heart I thank everyone for being a part of the magical evening that we shared together. This is only the beginning of a creative and unique food journey.
Hope to see everyone August 24th!
