Baby Craig goes to his first Gala! blueEnergy hosted its second annual Taste of Nicaragua fundraiser gala on Thursday September 23, 2010 at a beautiful building in Fort Mason. The venue was amazing and the evening, which featured a live and silent auction and a sit down dinner of Nicaraguan inspired food, was quite successful. The highlight of the evening was the attendance of Ms. Nicaragua all the way from Nicaragua, she was such a beautiful, sweet, mature woman. She certainly represented her country well.
The night before the Gala, Momma Craig was joined by her two friends Katie and Gabrielle to make 11 dozen cupcakes for the event: Banana toffee with cinnamon cream cheese frosting,
mango lime, coconut rum and mocha chip with vanilla bean buttercream frosting. It was a bit of a challenge given Momma Craig's status of being 38 weeks pregnant, but was made possible with the tremendous help of Katie and Gabrielle the cupcake elves.
