NYC Wine & Food Festival and a Giveaway

10/24/14 | Delicious Eats, New York City

New York City Wine and Food Festival 2014 with Alyssa
Last week I attended the Food Network’s New York City Wine and Food Festival on a pier overlooking the Hudson River and had a wonderful evening.  The NYCWFF has dozens of events throughout the long weekend to benefit Share Our Strength’s No Kid Hungry® campaign and Food Bank For New York City. On Thursday night I was lucky enough to attended the Ronzoni’s La Sagra Slices as JCPenney’s guest and during the evening of Italian cuisine I ate more pizza and meatballs then anyone ever should in the three hours – it was divine!

JCPenney graciously invited me to be their guest to this annual event and it was great to make their comfortable and beautifully decorated lounge my home base for the evening.  The lounge was decked out with stylish JCPenney furniture, latest home décor, and kitchenware complemented by festive Halloween decoration and I had a blast playing with all of the props.

I felt like a princess having a couch with my name on it the whole evening!  Fun Fact – there is actually a JCPenney in NYC in Herald Square but everything in the lounge can be found online, including the WoodWick® Mosaic Jar Sugar Melon Candle in Sugar Melon.  I really enjoyed having my fortune read from the chocolate reader and my portrait made by a master Chinese paper cutter:

How cute was the lounge?  I did spend most of the evening exploring with Alyssa from The Runway Chef, and delighting in the pizza, meatballs, and granola cannoli, which were unbelievably delicious.  As most of you could not be at the New York City Wine and Food Festival, JCPenney is graciously giving one of my readers a Presto® Pizzazz Plus Rotating Oven so you can experience some of the same tasty eats at home.  Please enter below:

Good luck!

    If I won, my twenty-one year old would probably be the one making pizza every night. He seems to always want one at two in the morning, lol 🙂
