More Foodbuzz Festival Stuff

The final blogger dinner was held in a warehouse!



I've never eaten dinner in a produce warehouse before so I was interested in seeing how it would go.



The bowl of carrots and parsnips. At least I thought they were parsnips but I don't remember eating any.



Each table had a basket of shrimp chips on it. I wasn't a fan. But don't judge me too harshly!





Glass of wine #1



Aisles and aisles of food bloggers with wine. Dangerous!



The husband with wine.



And an empty glass. Naturally.



Posing with the produce.



Signs with food/cooking quote like this were all over the building.





1st course. Pickled veggies. I loved the broccoli.



A pathetic attempt at using chopsticks. I am clueless.





Tentacles. I stayed away from the fishes but definitely enjoyed the noodles.



Food bloggers in action.



How do I use these things? Seriously? Fun fact about me: I cannot for the life of me correctly hold a pencil. Luckily my penmanship is decent.



Andrew enjoyed the grilled calamari.



The best brussel sprouts I have ever had!



Beef cheeks, carrots and potatoes. I admit the sound of "beef cheeks" really got to me. But Kelly explained that they were delicious so I trusted her judgment. Man, I'm glad I listened to her. They were so good!!! Tender, juicy and yum! (I apologize if I just grossed you out.)



More beef cheeks.



Then came dessert, rice pudding with fresh pears and a cookie crumble. We ate the pudding while waiting to hear who won what foodbuzz award.



I loved these pears.



I really tried to get good pictures of the awards but my camera fails in dim lighting. Here is a picture of Tina from Carrots N Cake and Jenna from Eat Live Run accepting their awards.



Ryan the girl is so adorable.



More winners!

I wish I had taken more pictures! Overall a great night. I really wish you all had been there!
