APARTMENT ENTERTAINING
A Celebration of Gratitude and Community
For nearly three decades, Thanksgiving has been the day I shut down my catering business to express my gratitude to family and friends. I open my apartment to anyone in need of company on a day meant for warmth, good food, drinks, fabulous music, and laughter. I can't bear the thought of anyone spending this holiday alone, so my doors are open to those who can't travel, have nowhere else to go, or are without family. I am blessed with so much to be thankful for, and this celebration is how I show my closest friends and loved ones my appreciation.
Each year, I encourage my guests to invite others who need a place to celebrate, embracing the spirit of "the more, the merrier." It's my way of paying it forward with a grand gathering—a lavish feast that begins with a spread of appetizers, continues with a full-course traditional Thanksgiving meal (including vegan options), and concludes with a sumptuous dessert buffet.
