This is primarily meant for first timers at the Festival of Arts, as I was. I had no idea what to do, so I finally decided to do the Wonderful World of Colorful Cuisine. I figured that the offerings would primarily be things that no one would want unless they were doing some "thing" and getting something (in this case a free cookie) for it. Boy, was I wrong and pleasantly surprised! Four out of the 5 were great, and the fifth probably was too if you like chorizo, but I do NOT. That's like one item had beets in it, and although I liked it a lot, my DH is anti-beet, and admitted he wouldn't have touched it (he wasn't there-I was solo). Then, when I went for my cookie (which was large and good), it was accompanied by a very refreshing strawberry smoothie, not advertised, an excellent addition. So for anyone not sure what to have/do at the FotA, I strongly recommend this one.
By the way, there was just one item I had my heart set on before I went to the FotA. the brie in a bread bowl at France. But lines were super-long. So when I called DH to bemoan this, he promised me he'd go to the grocery store for the ingredients, and make me brie in a bread bowl when I got home. So I don't mind that I didn't have that. I LOVED doing the WW o CC.
