Baking Day @ PVH!

Here's my little plug for PVH and one of my flyers;
If you're ever around the area and need a great GF treat, stop by!

Yesterday was probably one of the most exciting days of my internship thus far...The entire day I was able to shadow and bake with Poudre Valley Hospital's (in Ft. Collins) gluten free baker.  This lady is AMAZING and is the most experienced and knowledgable GF baker I've ever talked to/worked with.  LaDora bakes the hospital fresh, GF items once a week in a little segment of the kitchen that is blocked off to take precautions for any cross contamination that could occur.  I picked her brain for a straight 9 hours and had the opportunity to bake a few weeks ago with her as well.  She has many secrets, if you will, to GF baking and I was able to get just a few of those from her;-)  At any rate, she has been baking GF for 35 + years due to her whole family's history with Celiac Disease....she makes the absolute best tasting and quality products I've ever had...

Over the past couple weeks I've been able to do quite a bit of marketing for all of PVH's GF products throughout the hospital w/ flyers, internet promos, etc.  Today I'm holding a GF tasting in the dining room with a few of LaDora's products to get the word out on what PVH now offers!  This lady is great and definitely will receive some long past due recognition today.  You're great LaDora!

LaDora and I on our baking day stylin'...aren't the hairnets just lovely?!



And the most important part of the promo...I've found that most people don't have a clue as to why some individuals need a gluten free diet...It's not a weight loss "diet" or whatever else people may dream up...I made this poster to help explain why we now carry gluten free items and try to cater as much as possible to this population.  I used this promo to educate the public and as an awareness day as well.
