Impromptu Dinner Friday December 20
There will be an impromptu Raw Food Gathering this Friday Evening at the
SNFC (Sacramento Natural Foods Co-op) at 6:30. The venue will primarily be one
of purchasing your own dinner at the Co-op's buffet. (You may also subtly sneak
in your own raw food dinner, but if you do, please maintain a 'low' profile).
Anybody enterprising enough may bring raw food items to sell. (Again, please be
discreet).
Reminder:
Thursday evening
live good support group Postponed till February '03
I have received an
email from Adair Schwarz, our Thursday evening live good support group hostess
indicating that the support group is being postponed until February, 2003.
Adair needs some holiday time & vacation time. We'll advise when this
starts again in February.

old and is a psychologist moving here from San Diego. She will be working at the

December 23, Last Minute Raw Holiday ShinDIG (Submitted by Christian
Blackburn)
On December 23 from 5 to 9PM we'll be having a Holiday Celebration at Joyce
Coy's new place.
Joyce's New House
2633 Duet Dr.
West Sacramento, CA 95691
You can bring whatever sorts of things your heart desires. I have provided
some raw Holiday recipes to inspire you all:
The Raw Family's December Recipes
The Raw Gourmet's Holiday Recipes
Oh boy Elaine has a free Nut Nog Recipe Somebody better make this :)
You'll have to search for XMas type stuff here:
My mom never made anything that nutritious for Christmas, but that's okay I'm
sure I'll enjoy them even more too. As you just read the time of the potluck
is from 5 to 9PM if you simply come for the food, feel free to leave before
then however, from somewhere around 7PM to 9 we'll do some or all of the
following:
-play some board games
-watch a movie
-go for a walk
-do some massage exchange
this will depend on what people want to do and what time allows. So please
hang around, we're all friends here and are capable of doing more than just
munching together.
Also I just found this new event called RawStock which will be held in
Occidental (Never Heard of It), California in July:
http://www.raw-passion.com/rawstock.html. It looks like Occidental is
located directly east of here along the coast which means everyone probably
knows where it is except for me since I'm not from around here. (Mars) :)
