What a weekend!

Wow - what a holiday!  So great to see so many of you!

Just a few reminders...  I am placing a UNFI order this week - let me know by Wednesday if you have any case orders.  Would probably be willing to split some organic soda cases...

We also have a few new sandwiches coming up - the Medusa Cobb has taken on a life of it's own!  Soon, we'd like to offer organic chicken and tuna salads, either tossed onto a salad (Angela-style!) or on a hard roll.  Signature sandwiches seem to work better than relying on me to come up with a sandwich of the week, so I think that's the path we're going to take.

We have fresh Beans, Beans, Bean Salad this morning, and we're making fresh pasta and potato salads later today.

We have pie - strawberry rhubarb and apple - and we're offering them with a scoop or two of Julie's organic ice cream.  Tasty!  If we move these quick enough, we're considering raspberry and blueberry for the upcoming weekend.

We (read: April) is anxious to move onto to a few other plans we've been cooking up.  By this fall, we are hoping to offer a few lines of quality toys, at affordable prices.  We have several brands in mind - the front of the store needs some alterations first.  But stay tuned - this promises to be exciting!

Along the same lines - several of us have an irrepressible interest in the community arts.  As soon as we have accrued enough capital, we are planning a renovation of the building behind the Store, to offer both open space for the community, as well as workshops.  The idea is pretty vague right now, and such a space will share quarters with several other projects planned back there.  But I thought I'd give fellow travelers a nudge - if you are also passionate about community, and about learning, drop in - I'd love to hear what you think!
