Well, the last meal that Mo Hubbard will be brewing up during the 2007/2008 school year will take place on Thursday April 3rd. She looks forward to her retirement from the Mother Hubbard’s Cupboard Program, and will always have a little corner of her heart reserved for all of the wonderful folks met and great times had at the Chaplaincy. Stay tuned for more information regarding the new chef stepping into the kitchen…

The Hummus story:
400 BC Plato and Socrates write about the benefits of hummus in their diets.
1200 AD Mediterranean countries list hummus as a staple.
1910 Waves of immigrants bring hummus to America.
1981 Regional brands of hummus appear in supermarkets in the United States.

Fascinating!

Happy Belated World Vegan Day! November 14, 2007

So it seems that November 1st, otherwise known as World Vegan Day, came and went without me wishing you all a good one. What the heck is World Vegan Day, you might be asking yourself? Here’s the scoop (remember this for next November 1st!):

November 1st, 2007 was actually the 13th annual W.V.D which celebrates the founding of the Vegan Society in 1944 and the coining of the word “vegan”. Check out the Vegan Society at http://www.vegansociety.com/html/.

Hope that you had a good one!
