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.
