I have been very bad. I need to keep my fans updated as to what is happening. Catering has been slim lately, but that's okay. My cookbook is still available at Amazon.com. Friends and family will see many of their favorite foods in there, such as my blackberry bars and chocolate chip pie! Check it all out. And if you don't feel like baking - call me and I'll make something for you!

I love to cater parties - especially when there is a theme. Here are a few pictures of the Addams family party I catered. Both the food and beverages were named after a member of Chas. Addams characters.

Catering can be so much fun! Here are a couple of pictures of an Addams Family cake made for a birthday party! Everything was edible on the cake except for the action figures and a few tall plants in the background. The conservatory wall was made of sugar glass and the plant pots and other plants were created from chocolate clay.
