The Farmer And The Chef

On Thursday evening, we attended The Farmer & The Chef to benefit the hungry.



We enjoyed a great evening out while helping feed the hungry in Northeast Tennessee during the Second Harvest Food Bank’s annual The Farmer & the Chef event. It's where local farmers and chefs come together to create a unique culinary experience using available seasonal products to prepare their signature dishes.

Proceeds from this major fundraiser for Second Harvest Food Bank of Northeast Tennessee go directly to help feed the individuals and families in our region that will go hungry due to lack of food access. At the same time, this event helps establish sustainable relationships between local farmers and chefs, vital to our community's well-being.



Head Chef James Allen from our own Blackthorn Club is about to become a first time Dad today. Congratulations!






This is my beautiful friend Nita. It's always great to see her!


This is my stunning friend Victoria. I always get a little awestruck around her. She could so easily be a model. Hard to believe she is a grandmother!



This is my very stylish friend Kathy. She always brings a smile to my face each time I see her.



These fabulous legs and shoes belong to Danielle Hahne, account manager and photographer for VIP Seen Tri-Cities magazine. She always wears the most over top shoes of anyone I know.



I wore a cobalt blue jacket from Coldwater Creek with Peck & Peck white pants from Stein Mart. The white tank top and necklace are from Chico's. The shoes are from Belk, and the bag is from a consignment store.

You always look perfectly dressed for each and every occasion. I would love to read about how you and Mr. Mickey met - I'm sure it's a great "love story". So glad I found your blog.

Very pretty jacket...love the shoes. You have such lovely friends. Were you tempted by the platform shoes? The whole event was a win-win for everyone. It's great when restaurants use local products.

Hi.

The jacket, although boxy, is flattering on you, especially the color. The 3/4 length sleeves are very appropriate - not too covered up!

Love your longer hair style, it has real movement.
