Sunday Beach Brunch

It was a gorgeous day down at the beach during the Meals on Wheels Sunday Brunch event down in Dewey at the Ruttertown. It was a silent auction and fine dining event where I ate everything from chocolate covered pretzels to home made meatballs, to pulled pork sandwiches! They had several local restaurants there giving samples of their specialties...and at the end....we were able to take a booklet home with a large portion of recipes in it for dishes we tried that day! Now I doubt any attempts on my behalf to replicate these dishes will turn out nearly as delicious as when they made them, however I will certainly be trying to make a few!

Sandy Soucek, one of our Miss Delaware board members, and I met some amazing people during our time at the brunch. The place was packed full with people all there for the same cause...to make sure as many seniors as possible do not have to go without a nicely cooked meal every week.

Brooke was our contact and the event planner. She did a wonderful job yet again! She was at my first Meals on Wheels event in Kent County (Denim and Diamonds). She is very lovely and I know she puts 110% into everything that she does. It is great to see people working so hard for a such great cause.

Until next time...

Wesley Homecoming Parade and Whitten's Jewelers

I am still working very hard to catch up on sharing all of my appearances from the last couple of weeks. Sorry for the delay in posting about them. I guess this is teaching me time management to prepare me for the title of Miss America! I had a very busy past few weeks, and I am really trying to frequently post here so that you can see what I do all week long.
I had Wesley College's Homecoming Parade not too long ago down in Dover. I believe it was a new experience for Miss Delaware in general so I felt privileged to be a part of the beginning of what will hopefully be a continuous relationship with Wesley and the Miss Delaware Org. Unfortunately, part way through the parade it began to pour! It didn't last too long, but it was just long enough to soak everyone and then stop so that everyone was wet and uncomfortable. Nonetheless, we had a great time and Donald was a trooper! He grabbed an umbrella for me to hold over myself and his convertible as we continued through the parade.

Right after that I trucked up to Wilmington for the Delaware Auto Show. Whitten's Fine Jewelry, a sponsor of Miss Delaware, had a booth at the show where I was able to visit with people and sign a few autographs. Hopefully I attracted people to their table and helped bring a few customers their way! It was a wonderful time. I was able to visit with Craig and Cindy Whitten for a little and I even had my picture taken with Spiderman!!! Everyday is an exciting day for me haha, I never know what will come my way.

Of course I wore my whimsy ring to the event to model while I spoke with people to promote the beautiful jewelry Whitten's has to offer. Thanks again Craig and Cindy for inviting me to share that time with you!

Until next time...

Eleganza- NV Boutique

A little more than a week ago, the Greenville Country Club hosted their annual Eleganza event. It was a beautiful evening event filled with silent auctions and fine dining all raising money for emergency shelters throughout the Wilmington area. At this event there was also live music entertainment and a fashion show featuring local businesses.

I had the privilege of modeling for NV Boutique (right off of Papermill Rd near UD). We chose two amazing outfits for me to model! One was casual wear and the other was a dressy outfit. Everyone loved both outfits, and I did too! It was hard to give them back!

I saw some familiar faces there who were modeling for other stores in the area. It's always nice to share good experiences with good friends. Mr. DE '08 and Mr. DE '09 were there along with Mrs. Delaware United States 2009 and even a few of the Mrs. contestants for the 2010 pageant. We had a blast! I certainly recommend anyone who loves having the latest trend in clothing to go to NV Boutique! The girls that work there are sweet and fully knowledgeable on what's hott right now!

Thank you NV Boutique for asking me to model for you!
