Highlights to come over the next month:

"Can all you Can" - A Food Preservation Workshop. LVC will be in attendance and is looking forward to using some of the tricks of the trade in our upcoming Local Victory Project.

Until we meet again...Make your next event a Little Victory

March 6^th, 2009 

  Greetings Culinarians, and welcome to the March addition of the Little Victory Newsletter!    We at LVC have a lot to look forward to this month: the first day of Spring (is anyone else tired of snow?!), Daylight Savings Time, and of course Saint Patrick’s Day. Every year many people observe this holiday in a variety of ways, and this year LVC is changing it up.  Instead of the usual Corned Beef and Cabbage, we’re trying a new world approach this Saint Patrick’s Day and are encouraging people to host beer tasting parties. What better way to celebrate than with good food and hoppy libations? Little Victory Catering plans on taking the guess work out of your events by pairing five popular Irish style brews with a tasting menu of both stationary and passed items.  Traditional Irish cuisine with an American twist meets five great beers that whet your palate, speak to your heart, and make your event a little victory.  Please see the attached flyer for details and contact us for pricing!  

  Another great addition to this month’s roster is the Little Victory Catering Cooking Classes. Whether you’ve always wanted to learn how to make pasta from scratch, fill your home with the smells of fresh baked bread, learn to make inexpensive meals on a tight budget, or are just trying to up your game in the kitchen, Little Victory Catering can help.  For a limited time, I will be giving classes at a reduced rate in your home for a small fee and the cost of food.  Shopping, Clean-up, equipment, and instruction are all on me…all you need is a pinch of desire and a dash of open mind. 

  Lastly, we’d like to thank all of you who participated in our Customer Survey for the Local Victory Project.  You all had some very interesting things to say and some great input, and for that we at LVC are forever grateful.  We will continue to update you all on our progress with Local Victory as we go along, and remember to check the website and blog frequently for updates!  If you haven’t added us to your blogroll you can access the blog by visiting www.littlevictorycatering.com  and click the link under “Latest Info” and then click “Subscribe”.  That’s all from the Culinary Front this month! 

Until we meet again…Make your next event a Little Victory, 

  We are proud to announce that Little Victory Catering is now a Buy Local RI Partner with Farm Fresh RI.
