Another Date with Destiny

I'm looking at 30lbs of beautiful California Dates that are about to be turned into 600 bite sized Date Desserts for a Gala this weekend. I just hope I can beat the blue flu that is going around here long enough to survive the weekend. . .will update with photos of the Date creations tomorrow. Salsa Mama Katherine will be attending the event on behalf of CWC - she's even bringing along her famous Chipotle Brownies - laced with Dates of course!

And by the way - did you know that dates have been officially labeled a Superfood? Along with things like Pommegranate, Oats, Cauliflower, lentils and yogurt - these are items that are denser (nutrtitionally speaking) ounce for ounce than any other foods on earth. I am so happy to be working with the California Date Comittee to spread the word about this fabulous food resource right here in our own backyard! Dates are Great!
