Catering by Chrisetta: The Dawson-Dallas Wedding
A couple of months ago a friend of a friend asked me to cater her wedding. I was honored, but also a little apprehensive. I’ve done a few small catering events for about 30 guests, but this would be for 60 guests and –- a wedding! I tell you – I NEVER worked this hard […]
The Gym: I don’t like it
I’ve done it again. Fallen off the workout wagon… It’s been three weeks since I’ve taken my scheduled cycling class and two weeks since I’ve had pool time with Christie. What on earth is wrong with me? Why do I do this to myself? The short answer, I just don’t really like working out. So […]

Catering by Chrisetta: 40th Surprise Birthday Party
My friend and client Christie asked me to cater a surprise birthday party for her husband, Derek. I’ve never been involved in, or to a surprise party. So, I was super excited to be involved. And man was I involved, my job was to feed a crowd of thirty. Derek is a big, athletic guy […]
What’s Happening in September
It’s going to be a Sizzlin’ September. You all know by now that I’m a huge proponent of home cooked food. I share my passion for food and cooking in a number of ways throughout the community. I dunno why but somehow I keep being asked to cater events. This month, I have three catering […]
Taste of Summer

Garden Fresh Salad with tomatoes and cucumbers from Mama’s Garden on a bed of romaine lettuce. Made from scratch […]
