Welcome to December!The end of the year is fast approaching and the holiday season is upon us. Whether you celebrate Christmas, Hannukah, Yule, Kwanzaa or another holiday the celebration involves gathering with
others and food.
This time of year our thoughts also draws our attention to the those who are less fortunate. In November, I had the honor of being one of 1,300 volunteers that delivered meals to Food & Friends clients. I spoke with a member of the Food & Friends team who shared that volunteer support is needed all year round, but the holiday season is most critical, because the volunteer who delivers the meal may be the only visitor the client has.
- A closer look at my family's favorite Brussels Sprouts recipe
- Announcement of the chef jacket poll results
- Completing wine school
- A great tool to help with describing wines
- Participating in a cookie bake
I'm also reminded of those who are no longer with us. The holiday season at times feels bereft with presence of my dear friend and former coworker Bob (he was the number one fan of my bourbon balls) and my maternal grandmother (she made German chocolate cakes for me until she could no longer bake). While they may no longer be present in the body, their joy and love of the holiday season is still present.
I invite you to join me on my Technicolor journey to close 2014.Grab your cup, mug, or thermos of your favorite beverage - let's go!
Be well,
Technicolor girl
