Ask and Answer Tuesday

I always appreciate questions about food, beverage or my dining experience. I received the question below recently:

Technicolor girl,

Were you dressed similar to the staff at the James Beard House dinner or do you think you were mistaken for staff because you are a woman of color? Were you upset?  -Curious



 
My answer:

Dear Curious,

 Thanks for asking the question. This is a photo of the what the black linen suit looks like (photo taken at event where I was a conference presenter).  The only thing the waitstaff and I had in common was that we wore black clothing.  Sometimes it's frustrating; sometimes it's disappointing.

My satisfaction is staying at the table and seeing the look on people's faces when they realize I am exactly where I should be.












The journey continues!

Be well,
Technicolor girl
