Since the Lipscomb wedding, we've had a few projects.
One being our Halloween Cupcake Sale. We had four flavors - pumpkin, chocolate, confetti, and banana - and each were decorated very festive. The pumpkin cupcakes were topped with a little marzipan pumpkin, the chocolate with a chocolate spiderweb, the confetti with a mini reeses/whopper/fondant ghost, and the banana with caramel corn. They were a huge hit, selling 578, and we made roughly $800!
Last week for staff lunch we made chicken tostadas. They were served with a delicious Mexican hot chocolate tart for dessert.
Sunday Summer, Bri, Taylor, and I helped Chatfield with a wedding in Blue Lake. We served deviled eggs, fruit, cheese, salami, crackers, salad, garlic mashed potatoes, steak, chicken, and puff pastry tarts topped with mozzerela, roasted tomatoes, and pesto. The wedding cake was red velvet, and it was decorated with a simple mocha ribbon and green swirlies around the edge.
Yesterday, we had a catering at Eureka High School for an HROP Advisory Board meeting. I was unable to attend, but I heard it went over really well. They served chicken and spinach spanakopita, salad, garlic bread, and spice cupcakes (which were very tasty!) topped with honey whipped cream and sesame brittle.
We don't have a staff lunch this week because we don't have school on friday due to Veteran's day, but we have begun our Pie Sale. Up until next week, we will be selling pumpkin pies, chocolate mousse pies, pecan pies, apple struesel pies, and pumpkin cheesecakes. We are hoping to rake in quite a bit of money to go towards our trip in the spring!
