The momentum picked up on Tuesday afternoon as we moved into lunch and the afternoon break. Lunch featured a number of soups and salads, but the sun on the patio was pretty hot to get into something like seafood bisque.

Tuesday morning’s menu offered a wealth of options to attendees from “Beautiful Breakfast Quiches” (two to choose from, including an Applewood Smoked Bacon, caramelized Sweet Onion, and Asiago cheese Quiche and a Vegetarian Quiche with Fire-Roasted Vegetables, Italian Marinated Tomatoes, Spinach, Potato, and Asiago cheese) to a “Strawberry Sunrise Smoothie”.
