Hi chile-heads,
My name is Lisa. I recently subscribed to the list and I'm
finding it to be informative and often times very amusing.
I've been a garlic lover all of my life but in the past two
years I have become more and more interested in the hot
stuff. (Just made some scorching Hab oil this past weekend)
I'm the marketing/fund raising director for a small United
Cerebral Palsy affiliate in NE Pennsylvania. I have
approached our board of directors and my executive director
about having a hot foods fest as a fund raiser. They all
loved the idea and now I have to figure out how to pull it
off.
I'd love to hear some of the list members' thoughts and
ideas.
Some things we have planned for the Hot Fete -
hot pepper eating contest
eclectic music (trying to get Celtic, reggae, jazz, blues
bands - bands will be scheduled all throughout the day
local artisans and craftspeople
sale of pepper plants and herbs (we have our own greenhouse
- used for vocational training)
a sit down catered hot and spicy Cajun meal at the end of
the day
a small winery from our area will do wine tasting
vendors ( a local garlic farmer, a couple of herb shops)
Has anyone on the list ever attended the annual Chile Pepper
Food Festival and Chile Pepper Field Excursion in Bowers,
Pennsylvania?
