, , , , , , 0

Thanksgiving is going to look a little different this year. Chef and I are here to help in any way we can.
For now, we will be holding off from taking Reservations for In-Door Dining (this can be easily adjusted within two weeks if we are allowed to do indoor dining, since we are still in the Yellow Zone as of today 10/21).
*
However, we will be available for Turkey Dinners to be picked up on Thanksgiving Day.
*
We will be offering a Complete Package. You will also be able to order just the Whole Turkey and sides by the Quarts.
*
Pricing will be posted by the end of the month. We are asking that you place orders early, so we can secure wholesale pricing and also be able to organize how many order we can take based on oven space.
*

Whole Roasted Turkey with Gravy

Sides:
Whole Cranberry, Orange Sauce
Country Style Cornbread Stuffing
Cornbread

Green Beans and Carrots Sauté

Trying to keep our Menu updated with some of the items you guys have enjoyed over the years. Unfortunately, we have to purchase in limited quantities, making creativity limited, so as to avoid waste. We are grateful that we are in good health and can continue to supply meals.

Even though it’s curbside pickup, we still enjoy seeing familiar faces. Thank you so much for your continued support.

Always

My Kitchen Take Out Menu

Hi All

Thank goodness we both still feel good and are continuing to prepare  those same great home cooked flavors you enjoyed in My Kitchen. Meals may be picked up on Thursday and Friday pickup.  The meals are fresh and are refrigerator stable for 2-3 days or you can split the portions and freeze.

This is the option most of our Senior Customers are opting for, as it minimizes their outside contact.

Feel free to ask for an item, if not listed. We may still be able to prepare.

Thank you in advance for your support.

Easter Dinner 2020

Easter is going to look so different this year. Family gatherings will be small, just the immediate people in the house. We have to be thankful that this is happening in a time where we have Technology, so we don’t feel Socially Isolated while we are practicing Social Distancing.

*

Thankful that we can Zoom, Skype, FaceTime and WhatsApp Video, so we can still be “together”.

*

We had to taper our Menu a bit to make it cost effective for groups of 4 and up, which is the average immediate family size. Please reach out if you have questions on Customizing the menu.

 

Sincerely

Quarantine: Week 1

What I’ve learned:

1. That there are other people worse off than I am.

*
OK there a many more points but these stood out in my mind as I type.
*
So Chef and I are out of a job BUT we have had some amazing meals this last week. I know people who were worried that they may not even have a meal.
Chef and I are extremely worried about the future BUT there are people who need to tend to their kids, worried about their future.
*
This is such an uncertain time, so unprecedented. I think people need to internally come to terms with this fact. No excuses but even the “head honchos” really don’t know. We are having anxiety over a timeline on when it will end BUT nobody actually knows.
*
So I am here to ask you to focus on the here and now. They are asking us to stay indoors for a reason, so we don’t continue the spread. I know it is difficult because even on our worse days after 9/11 we were able to go outside, talk with our neighbors, take the kids to the movies etc.
*
THIS is different and as much as we want answers, we only have as many answers as we can give without giving you what you want to hear, then have that change within a few hours when concrete data comes in.
*
I am THANKFUL!! I am thankful for this time to be with my husband. I am thankful for this time to literally spring clean. I am thankful he is a Chef, let’s face it, I will die a big fat zombie.
*
I am SCARED of the unknown, I have 2 mortgages and Business debt. I have no idea what will happen next week, once April 1st rolls around BUT I also have no control. I am not unique, I am not alone. THIS IS EVERYONE on the Planet at this time. For once, I can safely say that the color of my skin or my gender sees no barrier.
*
We are all in this Together. I foresee a very long road, so hang in there. It has to get better because the opposite is that we all get sick and die. Then guess what, I won’t have bills to pay.
*
SO read that book you always wanted to. Make YouTube your friend and learn to paint or draw. Learn a crochet O_o. Organize your 30,000 photos on your phone. Clean you closet. Once this is all over, you can donate to a Homeless Shelter. MAKE USE OF THIS TIME you’ve always wanted.
*
Just please don’t be selfish and feel that you need to be out and about. Don’t be that guy/gal who spreads this disease

Day 3 – The Tough Decision

, , , ,

Hey There

Hoping everyone is trying their best to Self-Distance. I actually like the term, it seems to lessen the blow that indeed you are becoming isolated. I scroll through Instagram and see Business after Business in my Industry trying to keep positive in their posts, I know they’re not okay, because I’m not.

In fact, it is quite the opposite. Today I’ve made the decision to email my April Clients to just let them know that we would love to host them and while Chef and I are doing all we can to stay healthy, it doesn’t look like there might be a lift on the ban of gatherings. Why even hold on in this time of unknown, when we can just begin to look forward.

I’ve already moved some events to July. So hopefully I can get other Clients to move their dates. After surviving this Virus Situation and believe me, we will, it will be a time to celebrate. Celebrate that Baby that was born during quarantine, celebrate that wedding proposal during quarantine, celebrate your Dad’s 75th Birthday because guess what, we survived. Weddings Couples are a special bunch but here’s my advice: I know that for some of you this is literally the biggest day of your life (I remember the biggest day of my life was cutting my Crystal Gayle length hair without the approval of my parents) O_o *flashback sorry; i’m back..

Weddings are supposed to mean that you have made a decision to be with one person through thick and thin. You can still get married, enjoy that person. Think of all the fun you can have in quarantine LOL. The Wedding Reception does not define that Union. The Reception was meant to have everyone around you celebrate YOU as a Couple. This can occur months after. Just think about it. Don’t stress because you need to cancel your Wedding RECEPTION.

I am married to my Best Friend, My Strength and Support, My Drinking Partner and my Personal Chef *wink*

I know (I hope) my fellow Industry Members are allowing you to change your date. I don’t even think “allow” is the right term, we are helping you move forward. We are all in this together (says my inner Sharpay voice). We are not trying to cheat you, we are not being heartless, in fact, we are beseeching you to be understanding in our own silent way.

Oh My! I can talk on and on. Forgot that my original post idea was going to be a bit more sombre, talking about me not having Events in April either, hence no income BUT I have no control over this. My biggest hurdle right now is figuring out money and to be honest, if my landlord or my vendors don’t understand that I just don’t have it, then it’s on them.

I am trying to keep sane. Just happy that I have a reason to begin writing again.

Thanks for reading

Sincerely

Me
