Success!

We had an amazing fundraising dinner on Sunday, raising $2000 for LLS. 20 of our friends joined us for a phenomenal meal.

Patrick, the executive sous chef at La Folie, along with Roman, Jason, Eric, and James helped prepare and serve an amazing meal. We started off with raw oysters and champagne and ended 6 courses later with a delightful dessert from the pastry chef at La Folie.

Kristen, our neighbor and sommelier, did an amazing job pairing a wine with each course.

And our friend Becky reminded us why we had all gathered for the evening, sharing her personal story of her battle with Hodgkin's Lymphoma.

Thanks to everyone who helped out and attended. One of the most delightful evenings I've had a in a long time!

See a few photos below.

Much love and gratitude,
Melissa
