Lemonade from Lemons

Whew!!

What an amazing event we had last night. The celebration was in honor of "Women of Influence" in the local region. We teamed up with Hardcastle Entertainment, Dana's Cakes, and Business Examiner to throw an incredible party for these women... of influence.

There were a few wrenches thrown into our plans when we found out (enter the LEMON), just a few days before the event was to happen, that alcohol would no longer be permitted at the event. What??? Our big challenge was to show everyone how to party without alcohol. We weren't exactly sure how we were going to attack this challenge until we realized that we could literally make LEMONADE out of the situation. Check out the beautiful lemonade bar we put together. It was an absolute HIT! The best part of the whole ordeal was that the spotlight would be on our delicious food rather than mixed drinks... blessing in disguise!

The event was a total success! Win, Win.... WIN!

A day in the life of The Chicks

We have a huge event going on tonight that I will tell you about tomorrow. Last night was classic last minute craziness. You can never totally avoid it. It doesn't matter how OCD you are. Picture our kitchen full of Chefs doing last minute prep work, while the rest of the staff loads the "Chick" vans with decor, plexiglass risers, and bling for the food stations (I will have pics tomorrow!) I can't imagine a life where I am not constantly living in a state of being on a "scavenger hunt." We caterers love the challenge of making something ordinary into something unforgettable. As we were checking some of the equipment last night, we discovered some items in dire need of replacement... at 8pm. Off to Home Depot, Sears, and any other place that stays open late on weeknights for our convenience. I love the thrill of the hunt. Give me a good challenge and a latte and I am ready to go! It only took an hour of wandering around in an unfamiliar part of Tacoma to find what I was looking for...

Tonight we shall see how it goes.

Blog On!

Three Chicks is joining the blogging revolution!

We have done so much research and development in the area of partying that it is time to share our vast knowledge with the world. Nems Scarim, the owner of the company, cut her partying teeth at WAZZU... which is now considered a dry campus. So much for that!

We love a good event and that is evidenced by our diverse clientele. We have served everyone from our next door neighbors to Google, and Microsoft. In order to avoid any confusion... these people were not all at the same event. That would have been akward...

Catering and Event Planning is a unique field because you have the opportunity to meet all kinds of people... and most of them are really happy because you are going to feed them. I was once told that you don't mess with three things; People's food, money, and home. For some reason that does not apply to Three Chicks because we go into people's homes, feed them... and yes in order to have a successful business, take their money.

Since this is my first post, I am going to save some knowledge for next time. In the mean time, if you need some help partying, look us up. http://www.ThreeChicksCatering.com
