Don’t forget we are open for five more days. We will be serving our normal menu Monday through Friday of this week (September 25-29). Come on in and enjoy a few more “Bowls of Good” before we move to hiatus mode.

A great big thank you to all of you who came in and surprised me for my birthday. I really was surprised and got a bit choked up by the show of support. I feel blessed all around–life is good. A special thanks to my husband who masterminded the surprise, to Rachel who made a most beautiful cake (perhaps the next A Bowl of Good could have a cake making division–up for it, Rachel??) and my in-laws who have been the best volunteer staff anyone could ever have.

I also want to draw attention to my paid staff this week. They are the best, and this change has been hard on them too. None of us have a definite next step yet, so keep us all in your prayers. If any of you know of employment opportunities for Marielys, Beth, Corrie, Laura or Ona please talk to one of them or to me, so that I can pass it on to them. If you have a chance this week, thank them for their part in bringing you “healthy, hearty food with an international zing.”

Just to let you know, wonderful ideas continue to flow regarding the future of A Bowl of Good. I will continue to keep you informed as things become clearer.

Again, thank you so much for the outpouring of affirmation I have heard over the last number of weeks.
