This past year has been really busy for me and Stu and The Kids. As stated in some of the other blog post we are almost a full blown, tax-exempt, not for profit charity. We are meant ot heard something by the beginning of February and let’s hope so because I have a celebrity chef friend that is doing a show and wants to win and donate the money to us. Fingers crossed for us please, thanks. The board members have been super helpful this year too doing the banking, the taxes and helping spread the word about the work that we do.

I have been doing lot’s of paper work, social media and meeting with potential partners including Nancy from Texas that is going to do an interview with me on I Heart Radio, I will keep you posted. I feel working with other people and other charities can help us all. Right now I am helping to plan a fundraiser here in Chiang Mai with a great group, very small but they need help and I am so happy to do it, the kids are really great at the Stratton ABC Foundation all 10 of them.

Martin has been and will continue to help me with the website, which will change very soon. He has also been helping with the new logo, stay tuned….

My friend Erik, a great photographer and chef is coming here to Chiang Mai very soon for a month and he is going to take some great photos of the kids and I. I am hopeful to use some of them to sell to help support our charity, that will be a section on the site as well as for silent auction at the fundraiser when back in the states.

I am going to add lots of pictures here for you to see of the last few months of classes and fun. I have had a few cooking classes too. One class we made pizza bread and another we did cookie pops. The kids had a blast and so did I. Thanks so much for reading, more later. -Stu
