Posh Event.

One of my contracts is working for

our local community based hospice.

Because we are community based, we

are not funded by our health care system.

So we have to find the funds each year

to keep our doors open for our families.

Each Fall, we host a luncheon that is

not just a fund raiser but a friend raiser.

A way to introduce new individuals to

the concept of palliative hospice care.

The posh hotel we have this event at each

year makes the most amazing meals.

Mine is often specialized because of my

vast food allergies. But oh so good!

My lunch included ginger butternut squash soup, smoked chicken with a white alfredo sauce, beets, carrots and broccolini. I ate every last bit and every time I see the pictures above, I get super hungry! I must stop looking!! For our dessert, everyone else received Black Forest Cake but I'm allergic to cherries, so my dessert was a raspberry sorbet with lemon and lime. Heaven, pure Heaven to me! I love that each year, I have to submit to the chef a list of my allergies and every year he creates this amazing feast for me. And often, every one at my table will be often jealous that I get such am amazing dish. Theirs always looks good but I often notice that some don't finish the entire meal. I savor mine and cherish the thought that someone would take such time and care to ensure I have a meal that won't cause an Anaphylatic Reaction. I always ask to thank the chef personally and he always is so pleased that I love his food! A posh event that is so elegant, so well attended, so fiscally worth the work for us and for me, so delicious!
