Famous Chef Dan!

Something exciting happened recently.

My father-in-law, Dan, is the head chef at an old farm that was turned into a beautiful banquet hall that does weddings and other events. A wedding that was scheduled back in September was for a couple who had signed up to be in an episode of the show "Four Weddings" on TLC. The show is about four different brides who each go to each others' weddings and rate them on 1) overall experience, 2) wedding gown, 3) venue and 4) food.

So, of course, Dan was having a conniption because he knew he was responsible for the food ratings for this wedding. He stressed about it for several weeks until the wedding took place, and then we had to wait another month before the episode aired on TV to find out the results (the owner of Dan's facility was the only person who knew beforehand if they won or not).

And... THEY DID WIN!

Not only did they win, they won mainly because of the FOOD! It was awesome. We all watched the episode (twice) and of course we weren't surprised - we know how amazing Dan's food is.

Here's an article from a local newspaper about it:
