What a wonderful feast we had at the Haiti Fundraiser on Sunday! There were plates and plates of delicious finger foods that were being passed around by our fellow food bloggers, as well as fancy cocktails being stirred up by Grey Goose and Natalie from The Liquid Muse. Chrystal Baker, our lovely hostess from The Duo Dishes, organized the event beautifully and Greg from Sippity Sup provided an amazing location for the party – a charming and lavish home in the Hollywood Hills.

We want to share with you some photos we took from the event so you can see all the hard work that everyone contributed to make this a successful fundraiser. To see full-sized images from other food bloggers, check out the Facebook photo album that Chrystal has put together.

All in all, it was a stellar event and we had a great time eating, drinking, and most of all, mingling with our fellow food bloggers and guests. We didn’t get to chat with every single person there, but I’m sure there will be other foodie events in the future to meet again. Thank you for having us a part of this fantastic fundraiser! Cheers!
