It’s memorial day weekend which means summer is pretty much here! Lots of exciting things are happening and I can’t wait to share them all with you. I have another pasta recipe with Benedetto Cavalieri pasta coming your way!!! Here is a sneak peek below:

I am also working on a collaboration with Perfect Puree and Pomp and Whimsey Gin! This July I will be attending the Les Dame d’ Escoffier scholarship gala and as a former scholarship recipient, I was offered the opportunity to partner with these brands to create an innovative delicious cocktail! AND I will be creating a savory food item with a Perfect Puree product to go along with it.

PowerHouse Production News:

This summer I will be traveling far and wide. I want to tell you where, but for now, that’s my best-kept secret… more of a reason to stay in the know of The Garnished Palate! This time the course is going to be quite different. Since I have been working as a Culinary Associate Producer for nearly 8 months now, my role is changing slightly on this next show we are working on. I am taking on the role of Associate Producer which means I won’t be worrying about swap outs, props, and grocery shopping, nor will I be touching food- YIKES, THIS IS KIND OF SCARY.

I’m still trying to understand the role in its entirety, but I can tell you that I am LOVING it. Associate producing on a travel show comes with its own thrills. Researching locations, making relationships, scouting, interviews, planning and asking lots of questions and being alert for every possible thing that could go wrong. I think it’s important for me to learn every aspect of this media industry and I realize that it doesn’t always have to be handling food.

I hope you are just as excited to hear my stories!
