[Sca-cooks] Turkish Food and Washington D.C.

[Elise Fleming]

Greetings!  One of our Midrealm Laurels (Mistress Hauviette/Channon
Mondoux) just posted this and I wanted to share it with those of you
near Washington, D.C.

   Dear Friends of Chef Channon,
I receive requests to keep people up to date on my adventures; here are
two more exciting opportunities for me to share my love for ancient
cuisine;(you can also listen to the podcast NPR interview on "Here on
Earth" on my website www.rencuisine.com Jean Faraca (the host) is
amazing and made it so easy to talk about what I love to do- Kalamazoo
and Local Food were high on the discussion list)

Washington, DC (ATA-DC) are pleased to present:
