An Amazing Evening: The Holiday Glitter Show & Dinner

Hello! Well, last week was the 3rd Annual Zavida Gemstones Holiday Show--this year the "Holiday Glitter" Show & Dinner--and it was a huge success! The show was hosted at the beautiful home of Zavida Gemstones co-founder Shelley Milano, and everyone had a great time.

Shelley prepared a delicious Italian feast of two different types of pasta with homemade meat marinara and vodka sauce (my personal favorite). Of course there was also a fresh salad and plentiful amounts of crusty Italian bread to drench in one's leftover sauce. The desserts were positively sinful: a platter of assorted pastries and cookies tempted even the fullest diner, and my personal contribution to Zavida for the evening was a platter of cupcakes with a dark chocolate and cinnamon ganache, each garnished with a holiday candy.

Some photos of the fun:







All in all it was a wonderful evening filled with lots of laughter and good conversation. A special THANK YOU!! to all our friends and customers for supporting the Zavida Gemstones business and project....and a Happy Holidays to you all :)
