Yesterday was one of THOSE catering days. 😭❤️
This event came together literally last minute — they reached out last Thursday for a 75-person event, and somehow I pulled it all together while caring for my newborn and keeping up with everything happening at home.
I made 120 sandwiches, plus 150 cookies that I baked the night before (the cookies didn’t even make it into this video 😂), packed everything up and made the delivery down to Scarborough.
And because I knew I couldn’t be running back and forth from the kitchen to the baby, I did what needed to be done: I hired my firstborn. 😂
My Grade 12 son stayed home, got paid, and watched his baby brother while Mommy worked. Listen… I believe in family employment. 😭😂 What’s the point of having kids if they can’t help you reach the goals you’re working so hard for?!
The baby was actually GOOD, which made everything so much easier. 🙏🏾
For this order, I made:
🍗 Chicken sliders
🐟 Basa fish sliders with dill coleslaw
🌱 Vegetarian sliders with homemade hummus, sautéed sweet peppers, caramelized onions, zucchini & arugula
🥪 Halal cold-cut sliders with beef salami, turkey, chicken, pickles, red onions, tomatoes, lettuce & my homemade secret sauce
A LOT went into these sandwiches, and I’m proud of how it all came together — especially because this is real behind-the-scenes motherhood + business life. No fancy kitchen, no giant catering team… just me, my family, my kitchen, and a whole lot of WORK. 😂❤️
