No Last Supper this month!

After three long years of successfully avoiding COVID, our household was finally breached! Currently it’s only Shelby who’s sick, and she has mild symptoms – but just to be safe, we’re cancelling the Last Supper Club this month. 

The next
Last Supper* Club
will be at 6pm on Wednesday, May 31.

Treat yourself to a mid-week pick-me-up! Good food & even better company.
