Breast Cancer Seminar and Dinner
One in eight women will be diagnosed with breast cancer, or around 250 sisters, mothers, wives and daughters in the Spokane and Coeur d’Alene region this year. October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month and we are excited to team up with local cancer care experts to bring our community scientific information about how you can decrease your risk of breast cancer and breast cancer recurrence. You will learn practical, science-based lifestyle steps you can start taking today. This seminar includes presentations by medical experts, a three-course meal prepared by local chefs that incorporates the strongest cancer-fighting foods (no animal products), and a cooking demonstration. We hope you will join us! Please note that the location is different for this class.

COOOOKIES!
Cookie decorating just for kiddos! And kids-at-heart welcome too!

Cozy Cooking Class: Soups and Breads
One of my favorite things about winter cooking is making soups. Winter is the perfect time to make delicious soups and breads. We hope you will join us as we share some of our favorite plant-based soups and demystify making bread. We have some no-knead bread recipes that make it doable for anyone, even if you don't have a lot of time. This is a demonstration cooking class and includes dinner.
