Dessert Display Ideas

Just a Blonde in Buffalo Launch Party

I found this great article today from BizBash on different displays for your dessert table. Some of the most memorable events are the ones that are creative and fun! Below are some of my personal favorites from the article (For the complete list of ideas click here www.bizbash.com ). I can't wait to put my twist on some of these ideas for upcoming events around town this spring and summer. Enjoy!

A Night I Won't Forget

Just a Blonde in Buffalo poster Last Friday, my friend Lacey hosted Just a Blonde in Buffalo's launch party. It was great! Some of my closest friends and supporters came out to celebrate the beginning of my new project. The night was full of drinks, food, photos, and laughs. While we were celebrating Just a Blonde's blog, I kept thinking about how great supporting each other is.

Whether it's expanding a business, starting a business or starting a new career venture the talent I was around just motivated and encouraged me. The amount of local, young people who are staying in Buffalo and fulfilling their dreams and aspirations is amazing.

There aren't enough thank you's in the world to show my sincere appreciation from my friends and family for always supporting my crazy ideas. My belief is you are only as good as the people you surround yourself with and I am very lucky to have a great foundation.

Through this process of growing up, I have learned that if you want something you have to work for it, but its so worth it. Any dream is possible.

Polar Bites 2013

Tickets, Tickets Last week I had the pleasure of attending one of my favorite events in Buffalo. Polar Bites. Polar Bites is a annual event that benefits the Buffalo Zoo. A variety of restaurants, breweries and wineries fill the upstairs of the Buffalo Niagara Convention Center every February and guests have an opportunity to try samples of food and drink. Guests also have an opportunity to bid on some auction items and purchase animal artwork. If you ever have an opportunity to attend this event, do so! It is fairly priced (purchase pre-sale tickets for $35) and you're guaranteed to have a fun time out.
