Baking Memories virtual cooking demo
Tie on your apron, grab your whisk, and let's bake some memories!
Baking Memories virtual cooking demo is a new family event being planned by Lightways Hospice and Serious Illness Care. Funds raised through the event will support Lightways community grief support program and uninsured and underinsured patients and families in need of hospice care.
“In a year where all of our fundraising events have been affected by the pandemic, we wanted to add something lighthearted and fun—and completely safe,” said Eileen Gutierrez, Lightways’ Sr. Director of Development and Communications. “While supporting Lightways, friends and families can gather to pick up some great baking tips from our chef Kellie Hernandez.”
Anyone who registers for the event by November 22 with a $40 donation to Lightways will receive a baking kit which includes:
- All of the dry ingredients you’ll need to make your own cookies.
- Keepsake book with recipes created by the Lightways staff
- Commemorative Lightways potholders and spatula.
Kits will be available for pick up at Lightways at 250 Water Stone Circle in Joliet from November 29—December 3. For a small fee, porch delivery in local communities will be offered as well. Registration is required.
The event will be broadcast twice—on Friday, December 3 at 6:30 pm or Sunday, December 5 at 2:00 pm. The program is designed for watching first, baking later. “We love the idea of families watching with the kids and then putting all of the tips to good use afterward,” said Gutierrez.
Kellie Hernandez is the kitchen lead for the hospice inpatient unit. She is an accomplished cook and baker with a passion for baking and decorating. “Kellie is a phenomenal cook and she really creates wonderful comfort food for our patients and their families. I can’t wait to see all the tricks and suggestions she’ll pack into this 45 minute broadcast,” said Gutierrez.
Additionally, you will have the chance to win a holiday baskets donated by the Hospice Guild. These lovely baskets are jam-packed with decorations, wine and other treats to enhance your holiday entertaining.
