Happy birthday, Generous Servings!

One year ago today we opened our doors! We're going to hold off on the big celebrations until next month, after the holiday glut. Please mark your calendars for Sunday, January 18, when we'll be holding our first annual Cook For A Cause. We're going to cook from 8 am to 8 pm to make food to donate to our partner food bank, The Carpenter's Cupboard. We need volunteers to help--please e-mail us at info@GenerousServings.com to sign up for a two-hour shift. If you can't stay for long, please stop by for coffee that day, because we'll be donating 50% of our proceeds to the food bank as well. Plus, we'll be holding a food and kitchen equipment drive--please bring non-perishable foods and used kitchen equipment (pots and pans, utensils, small appliances) that we can donate.

Thanks to everyone for making our first year so much fun, and honestly, for keeping us in business. We heard all the scary warnings about how many small businesses fail in the first year, and we consider ourselves to be really lucky to have so many great supporters. Let us know how we can improve in year two! We hope to see a lot of you.
