Vegan Refreshments at 11/11 A Cow At My Table (ATA Valencia in SF)

[Guest guest]

Lauren just e-mailed me with an update that I couldn't resist sharing...

a really YUMMY update:

 

" We will probably have a few copies of " A Cow At My Table " at the video

showing.

We are also going to have desserts from Sparks (the vegan restaurant in

Sonoma

County). We will have 2 chocolate cream pies and 2 dozen peanut butter

cookies! "

 

If the desserts at Sparks are *anything* like the brunch, I know they will

be superb!

A few of us trekked up to Sparks for brunch a couple of months ago, and it

was

really, really good. We were tempted by the dessert list, just too full to

try anything

else.

 

Having just gone to brunch at Millenium's, I would say the food at Spark's

is just

as good! If Guerneville wasn't so far for me, I know I would go more

frequently.

 

Cheers,

Tammy

A Cow At My Table Screens At ATA in San Francisco

 

What: Video screening of award-winning documentary " A Cow At My Table "

Where: ATA Valencia, in San Francisco

Ever wonder how a cow gets from the field to your table? Ever wonder what

really goes on behind the walls of the slaughterhouse? Find out on Sunday,

November 11th at 8:00pm when two animal rights organizations -

Viva! and Animal Rights Direct Action Coalition -- team up to present a

special screening of an award-winning feature length documentary about

animals, meat, and culture. In " A Cow At My Table, " Canadian director

Jennifer Abbott weaves together documentary footage (including disturbing

slaughterhouse scenes) and interviews with agribusiness representatives and

animal welfare experts to present a complex and disturbing view of the meat

industry.

 

Every year in North America, billions of animals are slaughtered for meat,

but few people know the true price this process exacts on the environment,

human health, and most of all the cows, chickens, and other animals who go

under the knife. " A Cow At My Table, " which won the Special Jury Prize at

WorldFest Houston and Best Documentary at the New Jersey International Film

Festival, takes a deeply compelling and visually stunning look at an issue

that affects us all. Admission is $5. Vegan refreshments will be provided.
