The adventure continues and this time at Edwards House in Mountain Ave. We have three letters for this amazing establishment Wow!! What a treat!! We got recruited by Laura Pearson, owner of L Elizabeth Weddings and Events to make a Fun Lunch Experience for 35 guests.
How amazing it is to see an idea grow into a tangible reality. It all started six months ago when we gave ourselves a book from one of our favorite Chefs, Francis Mallmann. The poetry of his books, our love of outdoors, good food, healthy environments, community gatherings, music, friends and arts, are some of the ingredients we wanted to combine for our next adventure.
There is nothing more fun and interesting than a new adventure. Specially one that the main purpose is to make other people’s life better. For those reasons you can always count with Us. This adventure started with a call from Jennifer Lauren from The Family Center/La Familia, which is an organization that is dedicated to help parents who are in need of a daycare and can’t figure in their financial plans a place. We had no idea what where where getting ourself into, but as much as we are not about competing, the other part that we are really interested… helping. So we where sign up for the Chef Challenge for Children.
This adventure has been a rather interesting one… it all started with a full goat from Homestead Ranch, to butcher at home. This was definitely something new for us. Juli has not done this kind of butchering since Culinary School, and me, I had never even thought on having to do it, unless it was for survival. But you know life presents with this interesting surprises. Full on board with a small Youtube investigation on when and how to start, the adventure had already begun… it took us about 3 to 4 hours to do the work, but we where ready. I have to say that it was not easy for me to do this, and I do not know if this is something I would like to get myself into again. But never the less an experience for sure.
This has been our first surprise birthday party that We remember and We have to say that the family members did an awesome job at keeping it a surprise!! What an amazing time we had. We did not know what to expect, until we got to the house next to a lake and what a great view!!
What a great opportunity to do an event for such a great Real Estate Company. We love any kind a culinary adventure and this one was not an exception. A new residential development called Kechter Farms by Toll Brothers is happening here in Fort Collins and you all should go and take a peak!!
In my experience there is something amazing about families that hold together; a great mother. This day we had the opportunity to experience once again, the love of a family for their mother, and it makes me want to throw everything and go take a plane and hug my own mom.
All the idea came out of as a great surprise from Dawn Marie Duncan who asked if we wanted a write up for the May Edition On Scene Magazine… The answer was more than obvious!!! haha =D
Little have we been around this amazing City of Fort Collins, and the way it has embraced us is something we take our hats off and bow with our hands in our hearts, as we say Thank you. This time we were invited by Dani Grant owner of The Mishawaka and Taylor Walker owner of Mountainside Events, to cater the Centennial Anniversary of The Mishawaka at the Museum of Discovery here in gorgeous Fort Collins.
This event we had the opportunity to do a Drop-Off Catering at Galvanize in Fort Collins with one AMAZING Woman!! Maria E. Gregori you are someone true to admire!! Moving a great company called Leading Learners LLC, which gives great opportunity to young people to have a one-on-one academic coaching and tutoring to help excel in their studies as they become responsible for their own education and independent paths.

There are always new challenges in life, and they all differ from time to time. This past month we had an amazing great opportunity in our little Juli y Juan Company. Thru an amazing great friend that we have met in the Riviera Maya we got contacted with a true company. Colorado Fund for People with Disabilities or better known as CFPD, is an organization in Denver that seeks to enhance the independence and quality of life for people who are elderly or disabled and their families. How cool is that!!! They are into doing good!! into making a difference in our beloved Colorado and we are all into jumping all over those amazing and great opportunities.

Sotheby’s Open House Catering – When a great friend and an amazing Realtor, Kevin Holbrook from Sothebys international in Telluride contacted us to do a catering for a 9,000,000 million dollar home, we almost fall back of our seats!! “What an amazing opportunity!! An the Kitchen of that home???” we thought “It must be amazing” So a new adventure began!!
When Kristin contacted us, and ask if we could host Two Skirts Telluride Christmas Dinner, We where so thrill to have this amazing honor. Not only we were going to have a fantastic time with everyone, but we were driving to this amazing little town in the middle of the mountains called Telluride.
There are a few things that one must love about what they do, but this last Friday was definitely one that we loved being part of it… SpokesBUZZ CD Release VI. It all started with a call from this amazing person, Taylor Walker, who was mainly putting all the show together, We where asked to donate our time for an amazing cause… so when we knew we where going to be a wagon on the train to help young musical artist have a shot on performing their passion, we could have never refuse!! As we love helping people perform…so we tied our Juli y Juan wagon to the SpokesBUZZ Train an decided to share our culinary passion.
