Last night was The Red and The White – a wonderful event that was held to raise money for Harmony House Women’s Shelter. Here are 10 pictures from last night. It was a truly wonderful event and a big congratulations goes out to Chefs Michael Blackie and Laura Kirk for their amazing dishes, to Tracey from The Lemon Kitchen for her wonderful planning and for inviting me to the event, and to all the staff from the NAC and students from Algonquin College who were there to prep and prepare dishes for the crowd. I’m sure there are many other people to thank – including all those who attended – but I think the enjoyment of all involved speaks volumes about the success of last night.
