Also, this Wednesday.....

This Wednesday, the 29th at 6 p.m., come enjoy the best weekly vegan dinner in town at the Red Victorian, 1665 Haight St., San Francisco. Tastefully prepared by Patricia Allen Koot, N.E., certified Nutrition Educator, this is a GOURMET vegan dinner, with organic taste sensations from Italy, Greece and other countries. It is not only totally vegan, made without meat, eggs, dairy, it is cooked without oil, and without added sugar. As a Nutrition Educator, Patricia presents dinners that are nutrient dense and nutritionally balanced. Her dinners have become known as being the tastiest vegan dinners in town! AND, they are 'All You Can Eat!'

After dinner, stay for a most interesting discussion by Dr. Michael Edelstein, psychologist and nationally known author of 'Three Minute Therapy.' Dr. Edelstein will be discussing intellectual property, along with other participants. Among the points of discussion will be any wellness benefits of intellectual property rights.

This evening of fine vegan food, socializing and intellectual stimulation is yours for a minimum donation of $10. This is one of the best bargains in the City. RSVP to 707-774-1904 or email to: info.
