Well Hello

Well Hello World!!
 My name is Jessica, I am an aspiring chef living in Orlando, and trying to learn, gain experience and become a chef, caterer and entrepreneur.
I catered this weekend!!
 
Seafood Pasta salad

On the menu there was Seafood Pasta Salad tossed in pesto mayo with bow tie pasta, two types of chicken wings, vegetarian pasta tossed garlic aioli with fresh cut asparagus, grape tomatoes and Parmesan cheese. (Yummo) and lastly chocolate covered strawberries as dessert.

Though fun and stressful, I loved every minute of it and look forward to more events.
