Greetings and welcome to February; the Valentine's Day Month!
 
  As some of you know, Little Victory Catering is offering a selection of three-course menus for your Valentine's Day pleasure and convenience with our Valentine's Day To-Go holiday special, which is available for Drop-Off Service until February 13th, 2009. Our packages range from $140-160, and custom menus are also available. There are still a few spots available, so get away from the standard Teddy Bear and Chocolate Routine, and do something truly thoughtful for that amazing person in your life. Please see the attached flyer for details!
 
  In addition, it has been an exciting month for LVC, as we had the chance to attend the 5th Annual RI Local Food Forum, put on by Farm Fresh Rhode Island this past Wednesday, February 4th.  The forum brought together local farmers, chefs, schools food services, restaurateurs, caterers, and institutions to network and converse about best practices for local food sourcing and to innovate new ways to develop our local food system. There was also much discussion about the social, environmental and economic benefits of supporting local family farmers through direct food purchasing. 
 
  These topics were very close to our hearts as we continue the launch of Local Victory. Local Victory, our newest project, is a virtual (online) retail store inspired by the local growers and providers of exceptional food products in Southern New England and is scheduled to launch in Mid-Late Summer 2009. The Food Forum provided us with many great contacts and sources, including White Barn Farm, Blue Skys Flower Farm, and Matunuck Oyster Farm, which will help fuel our upcoming Local Victory line of sauces, marinades, soup mixes, pickled items and more. Little Victory Catering would like to thank Farm Fresh Rhode Island for making this event possible, and reminding us that local food is an amazing resource, just outside our doors.
Remember, if you haven't taken our survey on which kinds of products you'd like to see on the Local Victory list, take a moment and fill out our three-question survey hosted by our friends at SurveyMonkey! (

   We are also proud to announce the release of the Little Victory Catering Blog.  The LVC Blog has all of our latest information on events, services, images, and discounts so check back frequently. Many thanks go out to our fabulous web designer Wayne Hunt for making the blog possible. You can find him, and links for many other great sources on our Blogroll at
www.littlevictorycatering.com under "More News".
 
That's all from the Culinary Front this month, and thanks for joining! 
Until next month…
 
Make your next event a Little Victory,
