Stamp Out Hunger Food Drive is Saturday, May 14

An annual event, Stamp Out Hunger is Saturday, May 14. 

You don't even have to haul your food donations to a remote location. 

Just collect and bag nonperishable food items and leave the bag at your mailbox by 9 a.m. for your letter carrier to collect; it will be delivered to your local food bank (such as Gleaners Community Food Bank). 

And if it's going to rain, well, tie the food up in white plastic grocery bags. 

For more information, or to make a donation if you're not going to be home, visit to www.gcfb.org/StampOutHunger.

You too can become a sushi master ... if you hurry

You can become a sushi master ... close to (my) home. 

This public workshop is offered at Carls Family YMCA for a donation of $25. 

Your teacher? Food Network's Cutthroat Kitchen Champion and local restaurant owner Tom Lin. 

Hurry up; there are only 20 spaces available for the workshop. All proceeds go to Carls Family YMCA's annual campaign.
