Leap Day! Calloo Callay! Menu for delivery Tuesday, 2/28

Happy Thursday, everyone!

Next week, we have the rarest of holidays, Leap Day! We only get to experience February 29 every four years, so let's make the most of it!

I was thinking about how to celebrate leap day and it occurred to me to look to Penelope the Leaping Bunny for inspiration. Her favorite foods are parsley, cilantro, and carrots. I thought it would be fun to incorporate all her favorites in the dishes this coming week (and then she gets to feast on the trimmings!) Check the bakery section for another awesome dish inspired by my other favorite leaping animals, frogs!

Please order by midnight, Sunday night, for delivery on Tuesday, February 28.

Thanks, and I looking forward to cooking for you very soon!

Much love,
Chef Mary

*********************************************

Whenever possible, ingredients are organic and/or local. If you have a question about a dish or an ingredient, please ask!

All dishes are vegan, so they are naturally free of common allergens fish, shellfish, dairy, and egg. I specify any dish that contains honey. I do not use soy, peanuts, wheat, or other gluten containing grains. I DO use tree nuts and seeds, and naturally gluten free whole grains. I am extremely careful about cross-contamination of potentially allergenic ingredients! If you have any kind of allergy or sensitivity, please let me know!

It helps me and Mother Earth if you return the containers when you are finished with them.

Thank you so much!

Much love,
Chef Mary
