Mommy Night Out

Thanks to Nonny Linda and Grandpa Fred, I got to have a Mommy Night Out this past Monday. I attended the fundraiser for Terra Madre at Bar Cento. Three of my very favorite chefs and bakers--Matt Harlan/Lolita, Jonathon Sawyer/Bar Cento, and Adam & Jennifer Gidlow/On The Rise-- are delegates from Cleveland this year, so I was happy to be able to attend. I'm not going to reinvent the wheel here, so I'll direct you to Nancy's blog for all the details of the food. It was amazing! If you are interested, you can purchase a raffle ticket to help support the delegates going to Italy this year. There are only 200 tickets and the prizes are amazing. Grand Prize: SLOW FOOD TRIP TO ITALY Includes RT airfare for 2 from Cleveland to Turin, Italy, 3 night’s accommodations (3-star), and admission to Slow Food's Salone del Gusto, Oct. 24-27, Value $5,000.00. 2nd Prize COOKING CLASS FOR TEN With Iron Chef, Michael Symon Many exciting others......
