An evening with Madame Clicquot...

Tonight was the last full committee meeting for the Miami Recognition Dinner. We are close to reaching our goal and the evening started fully on focus and task oriented ...... until Madame Clicquot appeared ....

One of the members brought several bottles of Veuve Clicquot which was served with fresh strawberries and a cream and raspberry cake. We then became more "creative" and actually accomplished a lot more. We got through our agenda, assigned last minute tasks and have the impetus to steam ahead to the the event this Saturday.
It's going to be a beautiful eventing in the "Glimmer Ballroom" of the Fountainebleau Miami Beach. There will be live music, the presentation of the awards, a silent auction, full bar provided by Grey Goose and dancing.

Note: There were enough champagne bottles consumed at the meeting that one person was able to make a crown out of the used cork bottles. (FYI: The top of the cork cover has a picture of Madame Clicquot.)

If you know anyone who would like to attend the event, sponsor or donate an item to the silent auction .... time is running out go to: http://www.miamirecognitiondinner.org/
Thanks!
