The Benevolent Caterer Was Born in my Heart ...
Food is life…la vita…la vida…l’chaim…la vie…leben…liv..buhay…whatever your language, it brings everyone together with commonality. I cook every night for my family, because despite a barrage of personalities, schedules and obligations it brings us together…and I cannot have my kids eating chicken fingers and bagels every day of the week for their lifetime.
“To whom much is given…much is expected.” Despite make up, lash extensions, a cool wardrobe and fun shoes, I have dealt with my own shit (that’s all in my book). Sometimes people came through, sometimes they didn’t. Probably because they always thought I had it together, and didn’t need anything. I only remember two meals arriving throughout my eight pregnancies…and they are etched in my brain. My mom was gone right after Devin was born, so I was up shit’s creek.
No man is an island. Everyone needs help…we need each other. Life is a village made up of people in their huts. Not everyone with the same talents or experience, but in one way or another we need each other. Food is the ultimate gift and expression of kindness. I turned the negative thoughts of “why don’t they reach out…” into “I’m gonna reach out.” Turn my negatives into positives for someone else.
The Benevolent Caterer is my contribution to promote understanding . love, empathy and philanthropy,
no matter what life experience…good or bad.
$20.00 is your “feel good” contribution to your meal for whomever you want it for.
It will be an: Entrée, Veggie and Dessert (for 4 adults)
I will post what I am cooking for the week for my family, and you can choose from that, or I am open to other ideas, too, if none of those appeal, or if there are allergies, etc. I am happy to drop off locally, or you can pick up. Delivery is no charge.
Together, we can create a kinder world ... through food.
