Happy New Year everyone and thanks for thinking local first! We love our community and every time you choose us you show us that you love it, too! We are building a great partnership with each of you and with other local businesses, and this year we know this great movement will grow even bigger and stronger. We are all supporting each other and that feels really great. You can learn more about one of our favorite local emphasis programs at The 3/50 Project and please keep spreading the word!
This month we are starting a new idea we are calling Monica's Monthly Comfort Classic Meals and we think you are going to love this!
Once a month we will feature a 'Diner Classic' comfort dish with our focus on local ingredients and the first one is Chicken & Dumplings! Come in the week of January 11 and enjoy the flavors of a true comfort meal!
We know that January is a month for new beginnings, and that includes renewed commitments to your health. We want to remind you that we are more than just a bakery: we make lots of wonderful, healthy foods from scratch... Plus we take requests!
Our soups and salads with house made dressings can't be beat for wholesome flavor and seasonality. We slice our own meats, make our own meat loaf with Painted Hills 95% lean all natural beef out of Fossil, OR, and source as much food locally as we possibly can.
We know the first few weeks of a renewed health regimen can be tough! So for those of you who can't resist a little sweetness and still want to stay on track, we are offering smaller cookies this month along with a few 'better' dessert choices.
After all moderation, not deprivation, is the key to everyone's success!
Good luck to us all for a Prosperous, Healthful, and FUN 2010!

January Earns You Double Points!
If you don't have a points card, you aren't earning your rewards!
If you are just getting around to boxing up the old 'stuff' to make room for all the new 'stuff':
Make sure it is clean and in good repair and bring it in to Monica's for donating.
We will take food, gently used household items, school items, clothing, baby goods and whatever else you no longer need. We will make sure it gets to our neighbors who need it the most!
