Another Halloween party! This time I cooked up some chicken satay. Always love hanging out with Amy and Alan, good people!
Halloween at the Till's
Halloween has started! We had fun at the Till's house. They always throw a great party!
Oyster Crush 2014!
Known as the Party of the Year--the 2014 Oyster Crush Charity Fundraiser by Cape Henry Rotary at The Yacht Club at Marina Shores. The date is Sunday, September 21, 2014, 1:00-6:00 PM. There will be Virginian Eastern Shore Oysters (served roasted or on the half shell), Smartmouth beer, Rodman's BBQ and live music by The DeLoreans.
I was at the party last year and it was a ton of fun. All the oysters you can eat, all the beer you can drink and 80s music & dancing if you that's your thing. $50 a ticket, go here to purchase them. Check the photos from last year's celebration.
Davies Christmas Brunch
Every year Richelle and Dave Davies open their house for a Christmas Eve brunch with friends. It's a nice little get together where people get an hour or two to chill out and eat some good food with good company.
We usually bring something and this year Shelby had the idea of bringing some baguettes and dipping oil to hand out. I basically used my go-to bread recipe, doubled it, and made small loaves. We bought some 4 oz. Ball jars and mixed in some olive oil, Herbes de Provence, salt/pepper, and fresh garlic. We had an old produce basket from a summer CSA pick-up I dressed up and inside I stacked the breads and oils.
Turned out great and even the kids liked the bread. It was funny seeing them walk around gnawing on baguettes.

An Evening with the Virginia Arts Festival
Earlier this week we were lucky to attend a great event in a gorgeous house on the water in Alanton. Drinks and hors d’oeuvres were provided and live music was inside and out. Thank you Markella and Distinction Magazine for the invite! The John Savino Group managed this beautiful property.
