BOOKING CLIENTS NOW

I look forward to every holiday because I love what each of them bring: time with family, yummy food and seasonal decor of course! My mom went all out with each holiday hence why me and my sister are who we are lol.
My sister hosts Thanksgiving every year now, and let me tell you, she does not disappoint! 

WHAT I BRING:
I always love surprising her with a thoughtful hostess gift, last year it was a personalized faux pumpkin with her “new” last name on it and this year my mom and I found a stunning vintage serving platter with a traditional turkey embossed on it. 

In terms of food, I bake my Dulce de Leche Apple Pie for all to enjoy!
I especially love this recipe because it combines our Argentinian heritage (dulce de leche) and Canadian traditions (apple pie) together in the yummiest way.
