Ok Mom! Let’s take the weekend before Mother’s Day, to gather our girlfriends/moms/sisters and go to MOMfest at the Center for Healthy Living in Solana Beach. It’s a fun all day (10am – 3pm) event and I am proud to say two of the most motivated and special people I know, Marissa Joinson (The Intuitive Kitchen) and Amanda de Koning (Core to Soar) will combine their cooking and workout skills to create a really fun Sunday afternoon for us all!
Now, of course it is very cool of me to donate my time, a raffle item and gift for the swag bag ($100 off a class or party in your home).
BRAVO CHEF MARIAN!
Why thank you! But I will say that I do not do this for everyone that asks. So you know this is going to be a special Sunday for those of us who have kids. And remember: this is about us and for us, Mom! Here’s the flyer:
Music, an easy Workout, Massage, Bag O’ Swag…. nice! And good to connect with other women who are doing or have done the kid thing. Doesn’t matter if they’re just born or grown and gone. We’ve all got stories that each of us can relate to.
And lunch time? I will be working in the kitchen, as both a sous chef for Marissa and then we’ll flip, and Marissa will sous chef for me. This particular Sunday we’ll be teaching ‘salads’ and we’re not just talking lettuce and tomato here! lol We’re talkin’ delish and good for you!
Ya know, second year in the running I have done this very thing with Marissa. Last year I did 3 times on stage at the Del Mar Fairgrounds in June, and the 4th time? I was Marissa’s sous chef. And it was fun! We even wrote a CookBook together that featured the recipes! So I’m especially looking forward to cooking with Marissa again!
You can sign up for MOMfest here! If you pay, your girlfriend or your mother/sister can go at half price! Log on to see how you can save!
It’s a very intimate cozy setting of 50-75 women. It’s a great indoor/outdoor space to spend a late morning and most of the afternoon. And when you’re there? Please come up and say hi and let me know you’ve seen this blog!
Happy Eating,
Chef Marian
