Bravo hosted “Tea With The Tankards”, a private press luncheon at the Ritz-Carlton Buckhead featuring Thicker than Water cast, Jewel Tankard, Brooklyn Tankard, Latisha Tankard and Shanira Tankard. Guests participated in intimate conversations with the cast and enjoyed a classic tea party experience.
Yours truly was one of the invited guests and I enjoyed every bit of it. It’s always great to come together with women, fellowship, and empower one another. We learned so much from the Tankard women. They shared vulnerabilities, joys, aspirations, and more. Through the intimate event, I felt I had an opportunity to see a different perspective of these women than what can be packaged in a 60 minute episode on television. It was refreshing to hear these women be transparent about their lives, their trials, their experiences and most importantly…their revelations.
My friend Kyla, of Pink Proverb.com, was my plus one and it was good to link up with her again. We hadn’t seen each other since the Houston event last year. So, we caught up over delicious teas and crumpets. The pastries and sandwiches were delicious. The decor and environment added to the experience (I mean, who doesn’t enjoy hanging out at the Ritz-Carlton?).
