As much as I had “problems” to deal with, life goes on. What helped me personally not to crack was to think “it is what it is.” I chose to confide in a handful of good friends because I felt I just had to deal with it and move on. Ultimately, looking at the bigger picture, there are worse problems out there in the world. It’s not life and death. I am still surrounded by the same great people, everyone is healthy and alive.  The bad has to come and go to make room for bigger and better things right? Let’s take that positive and run it with chicas.

Now on to foodgasm pics….

Last week, Mr. CB and I took our families to our venue for the FIRST TIME for our tasting. I was a little nervous…. our parents had never seen the place; I was afraid they wouldn’t be pleased, and we had never tried the food there. Enough said, let’s examine ooh la la c’est food, we be speaking of.

C’est hors d’oeuvres for le cocktail hour! yum yum yum!




From left to right: Crab cakes, Flank Steak on potato crisp, Ahi tuna tartare, Pork empanaditas, Crab Tostidas, Shrimp Toasts, and Smoked Salmon

Now on to Lobster Bisque and Grilled Pear salad with mixed greens and pomegranente vinegarette. (droOL!)

And then after all that…. the MAIN courses …
  
  
  
  

Grilled Mahi Mahi (will be Halibut), Butternut squash ravioli, Roasted Duck,Chicken, and Filet Mignon (let me tell you, the picture does not do the size “actual day of serving size” justice” WOWSAHS!)

Now if that ain’t drool tastic, I don’t know what is. We were exceptionally pleased. Any of them screaming out to your palettes? We really hope our guests enjoy.

When serving any large party, especially weddings, I’m always worried that the tasting was great and fabulous but come day of, the quality and portion may shrink, anyone else feel the same way?
