The Tapas Party was a lot of fun last night! Because of the foul weather it was held indoors at the Pavilion. Steve and I weren't working so we went up to get some food and see how it was going. The Pavilion looked lovely, it was warm, cozy, and romantic with lots of candles and string lights, a welcome respite from the wet, gloomy outdoors. There was a happy crowd of people lined up on the bench tables and plenty of food to go around. My personal favorite was the paella, it was warm and filling with chunks of chicken and whole shrimp, but then I've always been a fan of rich rice dishes.
As for today, most of the crew had the day off as it was one of the few Sundays we didn't have a brunch. (We are having a special Father's Day brunch next Sunday that I'll give more details about in a later post). The farmstand was open though so I was working. I didn't mind, it was a relaxing day and the store was homey and bright with the fridges humming away and the lights on. Speaking of fridges, we finally have a working one for our pies again. The pies are made locally in Bristol, NH by Garlyn Manganiello's company Basic Ingredients, http://www.basicingredientsnh.com/. Her pies are one of our most popular products, and after tasting the mixed berry and a slice of the strawberry rhubarb with fresh whipped cream, I can see why!
