The foodie's afterglow


Well, I'm home again after an exhilarating day at Luna Fest. 

With only one hour of sleep in the last 31+ hours, I can honestly say it was completely worth it!

I gave out around 200-250 samples, including all of the Key Lime Ginger (un)Cheesecake, all of the Raspberry Chocolate (un)Cheesecake, and all of the "Every Day's Your Birthday" Cake -- which ended up being a big hit with adults as well as kids. (One of my favorite moments was watching a woman eat a cake sample, move to throw out the wrapper, then, on second thought, keep it to lick off the remnants of the gluten-free, dairy-free chocolate icing. Score!) 

All that remains is somewhere under half of my banana bread samples, but not for lack of interest. I just had so many bread samples.... 




I enjoyed speaking with everyone throughout the day about the Bloomington Kitchen Incubator, gluten intolerance, and the need for more safe dining options. I especially appreciated all your kind words and compliments! (The cheesecakes definitely had universal appeal. I have to say, I think the key lime was my personal favorite, but the raspberry was an equal contender with the crowd. I was doubly pleased that no one could tell it was dairy-free, or gluten-free.)

So again, many, many thanks to everyone who came out to support the Luna Festival participants and everyone who stopped by my booth, especially those who stayed to chat or came because they were invited. I really appreciate your support. 

Also a big thank you to the event's organizers from Women Inspire; we couldn't have done it without you!

That's all for now. Stay tuned to this blog* for information on other sampling events on the horizon, and other news related to the BKI -- and of course, more information on Kat's Kitchen's products and services! Catering: yes, please!

all best,
Kat
