This is where it all began!
After electing to stay home with my son for five years, it felt like the right time to spark the pilot light.
On a hot day in late August 2014, these dear, trusted friends came to act as a test group, and to share this premier with me, for what now has become 'Art on a Carte,' a concept of blending my loves;
friends, art, food and wine.
These ladies are so fun, they did an amazing job, and I wouldn't be here without them.
(You will see here that this first event was named 'Art Thyme,' which I adored since it was a nice marriage of art and food, however a few other people in Miami had already branded the name...
I will reserve the naming journey for a later post!)
I am excited and honored to take this journey with these women and all of you!
Here is a short photo spread of our first event.
