Wine Wine and More Wine

October 4, 2014
I must say that I was really did not know what a Chef's Table was. I had to ask my friends at What's Up SWFL just what it as all about. You see we do not have such a thing in my village. When I found out that it entailed wine and food, I was all over that! Two of my most favorite things in the world, coffee being my most favorite.
I was overwhelmed when I arrived and there were 20 people waiting to meet me....until I found out they were there for the Chef's Table...opps talk about being embarrassed! No matter, I just went around to all the guests and introduced myself. I think they struggled a bit with the fact that not only am I diva but a cannoli besides. It turns out that there are not many cannoli's in SWFL so I was a bit of a novelty to them. 

 I met some really wonderful people though that took to me rather quickly. Margaux, Francine and Angel. We became fast friends. Perhaps all that wine had something to do with it. 6 different wines is a bit more than this cannoli can handle. 

We ate, we laughed, we drank, we told stories. I must say it was a wonderful time and nobody seemed to care any longer that I am a cannoli. 

I am so grateful to have meet such wonderful people. What great fun it was. I was delighted to find out that attending the Chef's Table was going to be part of my regular duties! You Floridians sure know how to have fun. If this is what you call work, am I in for a real adventure. Look out SWFL....here comes Carmen!
