Menu for Rillito Park Farmers Market 5/15 8 am - Noon

 

Dear Green Heart Friends,

Well.  Easter and Mother's Day are behind us, and suddenly, it feels like summer is upon us.  Triple digits are predicted for Sunday.  You may want to pick up your order early.  OR:  Leila has suggested that we offer delivery (for a fee) as we did for the holidays last year; let me know if that interests you, and Leila will be in touch (send your phone number as she sends text messages).  I chose dishes for the menu this week that are delicious eaten hot or cold or room temp.  (The Borscht is to be eaten cold.)

Forbidden Rice Bowl

Also a heads-up:  I plan to put the weekly menu "on hiatus" during July & August.  Although I will go to Northern California briefly in July to rendezvous with my family there (haven't seen them since 2019), I will be here.  Leila will be assisting me in getting caught up on everything I ignore on a regular basis :-).  I will still make special order birthday cakes, and special orders in general.  You may wish to place an order for dishes that freeze well (the lasagna or the kale potato enchilada casserole come to mind) as many of you did in 2020 when Ted and I went to Pagosa Springs for July... and then moved in August from Linden St to the Sabino Canyon rental.  Leila and I will still supply Midtown Vegan Deli with (primarily) cookies and cakes; as they are making their own savory items now, we stick with the healthy sweets.

In the meantime, let me know what you'd like to see on the menu between now and July -- and we will probably make it!

Thank you in advance for your order - it is appreciated, as we have had "regulars" out of town.  Please try to have your order in by Thursday night.

In health,

Alaine
