November 6, 2014: Soup

Hello there,
 
We’re glad to announce a menu for November 6: Soup! Chicken soup, tomato soup, lots of beautiful accompaniments and salads, and even some cookie dough. There are some other things we’re excited about right now, too, that we think you might like to know about:
 
F.E.E.D:
Farmers Exchange of Earthly Delights is responsible for providing us with much of the Sonoma bounty that fills your crate each time, and they are fine people who really believe in what they do. They have an indiegogo campaign right now to raise money for a new truck so that they can add a delivery day and serve the growing need for locally grown food. There are some very sweet rewards; check it out!
 
Berkeley Kitchens Open House:
Our beloved kitchen community is throwing an open house on November 14, from 5:00 pm to 7:00. Mark your calendar to come on by 2701 8th Street in Berkeley and taste and see what we’re all up to.
 
And now, some food for you:
 
All in (chicken soup and tomato soup): $165.00

Because you need pickles.
