In the United States today is Labor Day, a public holiday celebrated the first Monday in September. While many think of Labor Day as a shopping day and the unofficial end of Summer, the holiday honors the American labor movement and the contributions of workers. A heartfelt thanks to all to all the food and beverage industry who make it possible to enjoy food and beverage in our residence and in public; from the farmer to the server to the dishwasher.
My acupuncturist, Dr. Brad, recently reminded me that according to his training tradition, in the Northern Hemisphere we have transitioned to Late Summer - the time of gathering the crops before Fall. For many, the produce is stores is fresh and colorful and accessible, but for those living on a very limited budget access to that produce may not be a feasible reality.
I invite you to join me as I explore:
- Chef Alexander of Art and Soul Restaurant and Hardywood Park Craft Brewery (a Virginia brewery) reuniting to delight guests at a dinner
- Participating in 2015 SNAP Challenge with Maryland Hunger Solutions -hint: there's an added complexity to this year's SNAP Challenge.
- A visit to a Maryland based whiskey distillery
- An invitation to have dinner with a very special guest
- Portraits of local women chefs and cooking demos by the local women chefs at Strathmore Music Center
- And several surprises a long the way!
Even better- register to attend or participate in these activities along with me.
Are you ready? Let's go!
Be well,
Technicolor girl
