Last night was the perfect day to have catered party. Mr. and Mrs. Hoffman hosted a lovely evening filled with laughter and conversation, and tasty appetizers from your truly in honor of his deployment.
There were many people there that have loved ones in Iraq and the support system seemed very tight, as times of loss and being apart are always hard for anyone, especially when you may not see them for a long time.
I thought this was a wonderful way of sending him off, with many of his favorite foods such as: Chinese BBQ pork, pot stickers, crab cakes with a lemon dill sauce, cookies, brownie bites, and Belgium chocolate fountain. The house was filled with the smells of freshly made stir fry over over rice, a large assortment of fresh fruits that went wonderfully of the breathtaking view from the patio of Ruston Way.
Wine and micro brews were enjoyed by the guests, as well as the scenery.
The staff enjoyed the intimate gathering of 40 or so friends, and would love to be a tasty send off for anyone serving our country in the future, or when they return home. Call for special military rates.

PS I wish I didn't leave the SD card in my computer for my digital camera. Those would have been awesome pictures!
