Experimentation...

I did really well at the last wine fest I attended! The weather was great and I sold out of 2 blends! Here was my table...

I'll be stepping up my display for the next events. I've painted my my cup holder a bright aqua, distressed it and put the bamboo strainers on it. I also painted my plate rack lovely burnt orange color and hung all my stainless infusers and hand-stamped muslin bags from it.

I'm painting a few other display items, as well. My new event table will be colorful and will definitely grab attention!

So... onto the experimentation...

I'm dehydrating these...

fresh lemons...

and these...

fresh Key Limes...
to try some new citrusy blends!

Did you know Key Limes are green inside, but have a yellow peel when ripe?

Stay tuned for the new blends and my May event schedule!

I'll be doing two wine fests and Lois' Cool and Groovy Garden Party! Details to come!

Time to Study!

I received my food manager study guide! With my class and test 3 weeks away... I'll be working hard studying and taking quizzes and practice tests! I've opened an account with my primary tea supplier and am working on setting up an account for biodegradable packaging. I'm also scoping out the local markets where I'll be selling and I've set up a Twitter account so I can tweet my schedule to my customers. You can find it here.
