RACINE — Ahmad Kweku Qawi, president/CEO of Racine Family YMCA, announced that the Young Leaders Academy summer session is returning to Carthage College in Kenosha this year to provide Racine
RACINE â Cheese, meat, crackers.
Theyâre a staple at just about every picnic. But Emmie Boedecker, who owns Boards by Emmie LLC, wanted to elevate them.
So, she started making charcuterie boards, spreads â typically on a wooden board, or a plastic one depending on the occasion â chock-full of specialty cheeses, slices of meat like prosciutto or salami, crackers, fruits and even artisanal jellies, honey and chocolate.
âWho doesnât love an adult Lunchable?â Boedecker said as she rolled up a slice of salami and placed it perfectly on one of her boards; the more rolls she put on there, the more it looked like a bouquet of roses. âBecause itâs really what they are.â
