We love to cook, and we’d like to share our joy with you! Please join us next week as we make a couple of our favorite recipes: Butternut ginger soup with homemade parmesan crisps. This is for adults only because you matter too! The meal is provided, but donations are gratefully accepted to help Megan and Kristy with costs. We will demonstrate how to make the meal and we will enjoy it together. RSVP is required so that we know how much to buy and prepare. Please e-mail Kristy if you will be joining us.
*If you are a parent interested in offering a creative one-off or an ongoing creative connection group, please reach out to Erica or Sammy.
