Note from Jean
I hope you had a good weekend. The weather here was beautiful, lots of sunshine, not too hot and the days are getting longer. Who could ask for anything more?
The Taste of Wellness was a fabulous success and I want to send a special thank you to all of those people who helped us make this event happen! The volunteers from the day of the event worked so hard, I want to make sure each of you knows how much we appreciate you!!!!!
The musicians were awesome, the restaurants brought great samples for all, Vic's Embers hosted the bar which pleased many of our patrons, the spa room was packed and busy all evening and the vendors were very pleased with the event.
Our survey indicated that almost everyone of our vendors will return for the 2013 Taste of Wellness. Thank you all again. Please mark your calendar for January 25th, 2013 for the next TASTE OF WELLNESS!
Since this was such a busy weekend, I had to find a quick and simple recipe to make for this week. It turned out to be quite yummy so I am sharing it with you.
Remember to check out the events for February below!
Be Well
Jean
