Snack By Snack

Besides the remaining 5-7 mini pieces of Yo Momma’s Oatmeal Squares and the half gallon of Blue Dew Tea that I transferred back home, all snacks were pretty much consumed within about an hour’s time. To no surprise of mine, first from the list to go (thanks to the hearty appetite of Francisco Dao, who you may know from The Killer Pitch) was none other than my Creole Crock Pot Jambalaya. The Clarified Butter Blueberry White Chocolate Chip Sugar Cookies followed shortly behind, leaving the “and then there were two” scenario with my Blue Dew Iced Tea and my Yo Momma’s Oatmeal Squares sitting around, just waiting to be had.

In Attendance

Although I can’t claim to have met with all persons who were at Blank Spaces last night, I can certainly claim to have connected with quite a few pleasant folk. Amongst them would be the first lady I walked by (and checked in with) as I entered the spot, Katya Roberts, who is property manager at Blank Spaces. Then, after laying the snacks out on the table, I was kindly greeted by Kim Koury, President of Spin Public Relations, a PR firm in Santa Monica specializing in public relations, strategic planning and special events coordination. In addition, I also had the pleasure of meeting publicist, Michelle Avedissian; network specialist, Matthew Almanza; and reporter with SynchedUpShow, Rich Demuro. And, last, but certainly not least on the (had the pleasure of meeting with) list would be Angela Wise, director of sale and distribution for (the innovative and creative custom label energy drinks company,) Xbrand Fluids, LLC.

*Did you go to this month’s Freelancer Fridays (or, perhaps a previous month’s)? What did you think?

Amongst some of the party favors that will be provided include a crock-pot filled to the brim with jambalaya, a pitcher of Blue Dew iced tea, a handful of Valentine’s Day strawberries, a batch of clarified butter sugar cookies (with blueberries and white chocolate chips) and a few other secret snacks, certainly worth the anticipation And, I even heard that there will be wine, too! Just like the food, drinks and especially good company, pre-registration is free so, sign yourself up and be sure to bring some friends along. That’s this Thursday, February 19, 2009 from 6-9pm (PT) at Blank Spaces located at 5405 Wilshire Blvd (see it on Google maps).
