A FULL ON WEEKEND

 SAT 10TH MAY

10 Platters to be delivered for birthday celebrations

Mothers  Day cooking demonstartions  at Mid valley

Then off to Melbourne , to prepare for the Mothers Day High Tea , at the Melbourne Town Hall.


MONDAY 12TH MAY......
The platters were delivered ...
The demonstrations at Mid Valley ,were so much fun and well attended . Children are so imaginative when it comes to crushing biscuits and I actually thought there was more tasting going on as opposed to making mum chocolate balls. There were  some really chocolaty faces at the end of the classes.
It was lovely to meet and work alongside Val from My Kitchen Moves . Check out the web site .

Laufa and I prepped our tastings in the kitchen of the Melbourne Town Hall , we worked alongside Jennifer  ( one half of the winning team of My Kitchen Rules  in 2012 )
The food was amazing and plated up by eager young volunteers , the tables were waited on by efficient young males .
Not only did the food look good but it tasted amazing , there were sandwiches,  pastries  both sweet and savoury, shots of gazpacho , chocolate flavoured sweet treats of all varieties .Fruits and  yoghurts , coffee , teas and champagne .
It was amazing , all the tickets had been sold . I was still pinching myself this morning .
The speakers were interesting , the company was friendly and all the monies raised is going towards a health centre for homeless women .
Mental health is a huge problem in our community and can effect any of us at anytime without notice.
Mental health does not discriminate.
The Mothers Day High Tea at the Melbourne Town Hall was organised and run by Moral Fairground ..moralfairground.com.au
