For months, Donna would ask me to find her a job, that she really could utilize her passion. I knew when we were cleared from the pandemic, I was going to reach out to Myra and Neil, owner's of the east end's finest catering Elegant Eating. Their business caters to all walks of life. They spend a lot of time catering to the most exquisite A-list clients on Long Island. Myra was a home economics teacher for 40 years. She has been gracious enough to have Donna come and learn the craft that interests her. Along with their beautiful food and events, it is their compassion toward's seeing others thrive. The staff is so happy to be there, and you can see the compassion, grace and expertise resonate in this team. I can not thank them enough for being involved in our News Makers and in the ability to launch our team into the real world.

She then showed me that table scapes is a design career on it's own. It is a blanket term that combines your table's centerpiece and place settings, or the overall decoration of your table.

Table Scapes..it is indeed a thing !
