Babs founded Babs Boards in 2021 after a successful 25-year career in the corporate world, turning her lifelong love of entertaining into a full-time passion. Known for her stunning charcuterie boards and signature “Girls Who Grill” classes, she has taught more than 150 workshops, curated unforgettable grazing tables, and even led a live class at Wrigley Field. Featured on WGN, FOX Chicago, and CBS Chicago, Babs continues to inspire others to gather, share, and celebrate life’s moments with style. She’s thrilled to partner with A Curated Host to elevate the art of entertaining this holiday season.

Hosting Tip: 

Choose your setup. Buffet or family-style? Decide early as it shapes the flow, plating, and pacing of the entire experience. Lay out serving dishes with Post-it notes ahead of time, so guests can help as the food comes together.
