I am thrilled to have been asked to donate a Preserving Party for the Seattle chapter of Les Dames d'Escoffier's annual event, being held on March 31st, 2011.
As Jamie Peha, the promoter of the event said "Tickets are going fast. Amazing food, one-of-a-kind auction lots. Plus the best Dessert Dash you've ever seen. It's a bidding frenzy..."
In other words, get your tickets asap!
