reunited and it feels so good.....

Out of the blue an old friend emailed me asking me if I still cater. Reluctantly I said yes because we had just moved two days before he emailed me and our kitchen was about to undergo renovation- I know, not good timing. This is our 8th- EIGHTH MOVE and so many special things especially kitchen stuff have been accumulated therefore, I can't 'let go'.
So we planned the party through emails.
When I delivered my goods to my friend and his new wife, it felt so good to see him. It really did. It melted my heart. He reminds me of my own wonderful husband.
I don't need to digress, the party was planned around a son who appearing in a stage show called Shrek. Friends and family came over after the last performance.
I gave a simple menu  but so good-and here it is:

Cranberry, Cilantro  CreamCheese Dip

Bacon apple Tart

The beef tenderloin bruschetta

Baked Spaghetti 

My Favorite Salad 

Bongo Mongo Torte with Ginger Snaps

Salted Caramel Strawberries

Apple Pie Crescents
