Oh my hat, I can’t believe it’s Wednesday already and I haven’t had a chance to tell you about my spectacular Saturday evening.
You may or may not know that one of my favourite Food People is Jane-Anne Hobbs. Whenever we are looking for a recipe idea to make a feast we inevitably find it on her blog or in her book she released earlier this year. She is very quick to point out that she is a cook, not a chef, and I think that is why the food she makes appeals to us so much. It’s not fancy, it’s REAL and whenever we make something of hers it is always a hit.
So, imagine my glee at being lucky enough to be her kitchen elf on Saturday night at the Spier Secret Festival dinner. Ticket holders could choose to have dinner cooked by a celebrity chef at different venues. Our venue was, well, interesting, to say the least. Lets just say we went with rustic in the end. I also got to meet some lovely people, amongst which were Pat from Yumsy and her son Jason. Here is the post Pat did on the dinner, I couldn’t have said it better myself.
Thank you thank you Jane-Anne, I will quite happily be your kitchen elf any day!
The very best kitchen elf I have ever met. Between phoning every two minutes to open the gate, decorating the table, helping in the kitchen, cleaning up, and just plain mingling with the guests. Nobody could have asked for a better kitchen elf. I think that Jane-Anne Hobbs was mightily pleased with her elf and so were we.
Oh Pat, thank you so much, the company was wonderful 🙂
Read the blog post, and the food sounds so very yummy!!
what an awesome evening you had!
