festivities approach, food and wine bloggers around the world join in
an effort to raise funds and awareness for the UN World Food Programme with Menu for Hope 6 (December 14-25).
I continue my trek around the globe highlighting Some of my Favorite Menu for Hope 6 offerings with a look at the US West Coast bid items.
The West Coast list is hosted by Shauna at Gluten Free Girl (and the Chef).
Wanna eat local, a Locavore Starter Kit is offered by Soul Food Farm and Married with Dinner (UW 02).
What's in it:
olive oil, and other farm-fresh goodies. Pick up your winnings all at
once, or spread it over multiple pickups: It's up to you how to spend
your CSA credit (subject to the usual order terms, naturally).
Plus,
Soul Food Farm farmer Alexis Koefoed has offered a personal tour of
Soul Food Farm for the prize winner and up to 3 guests at a mutually
agreeable time in 2010.
Have not taken your better half or your love interest out in a while, try Dinner for 2 at Coi in San Francisco donated by Pim. (UW 06)
Beverages and gratuity are not included."
The baking part of me (in hibernation for the time being) had to like The Ultimate Vanilla Package (UW 13):
Win 175 vanilla beans of 7 different varieties, plus ground vanilla,
vanilla sugar, vanilla extract, 2 kinds of vanilla paste, and vanilla
Fleur de Sel. This is enough vanilla to last you a lifetime, sponsored
by Beanilla."
These are 3 of my favorite things.
I could have named many more.
Now all you have to do is Enter your Bids and for as little as $10, you have a shot at getting one of these unbelievable items.
Tis' the season for giving!
