last night, world fare hosted the three rivers area chamber of commerce quarterly get together, an event that provides chamber members an opportunity to fraternize and to learn more about the host business.
all things considered, everything went well. we had about 40 to 50 people here, including many who had never been in the store before. because she is the person on whom such tasks fall, kirstin gave a brief presentation about fair trade and the store. folks were very receptive to the idea, which is always exciting.
unfortunately, we (and by we i mostly mean kirstin) made far too much food, despite losing an entire loaf of bread to one of the dogs shortly before the event started (he took it off the counter at home while it cooled). the house was happy to help with the leftover hummus, though.
we also have about 50 cups of coffee left over, so if you'd like to stop by for a cup today you're more than welcome. yes, i fully realize that one-day-old coffee isn't exactly the greatest, but it's such a waste to throw it all out.
