The Yuzh

2:30 at Victor Steinbrueck, tomorrow, Saturday, 4/18! Come one, come all. It's going to be a beautiful, sunny day, perfect for a free food picnic. In the park!
If you want free food, have something to discuss, like to play or listen to music, or just want to hang out and be non-capitalist (and through your participation help others to do the same), then please join us. No income, age, or any other bracket excluded!


Here was a couple weekends ago at VBP:




And feeds of months past:

Today

We went down to Pike Place today a little early to see if we could catch the bank protest, but ended up mostly hanging outside of Left Bank Books. Music was had! I can't remember the name of the band, but they were wonderful! Accordion and Saw.

Apologies to anyone who went down at 2:30 and couldn't find us! We should have posted something beforehand about the change, but it was decided very last-minute. We'll try to post things more consistently about upcoming things, but if nothing appears before any given Saturday, feel free to just send us an email with your number and we'll keep you informed.

FNB 4/4 - New Location

FNB is happening this Saturday! As usual, we'll meet at Sherwood at 10am to cook. But at 2:30 we're going to go to a new location this time to serve: Victor Steinbrueck Park. That's the park at the north end of Pike Place Market. Aside from the great location, it also has a view overlooking Elliott Bay, and is always packed with people, so bring your best party dress.

WE NEED:
- help transporting gear & food from the U-District to Pike Place.
- intrepid servers who will show up at the park at 2:30 and help everyone eat and make merry.
- Live Music! Bring your guitars, accordions, washboards, banjos, fiddles, drums, plastic buckets, thumb pianos, saxophones & trumpets, tamborines, didjeridus, and/or those tubes that make sound when you twirl them in the air.

Contact!

No RRFM FNB this Saturday

We won't be serving at the Really Really Free Market this Saturday, because a lot of people are still out of town for break. HOWEVER: We will be taking a trove of sandwiches down to Critical Mass tomorrow! Westlake Square at 5:30 PM, Friday 3/27.

Our FNB schedule will resume next weekend. We might make some changes for this quarter, so stay tuned, or get in touch if you want to get in on the planning and everything.

Saturday 3/21

There's a decent chance of FNB next Saturday, but some of our "regulars" might be away, so it's still up in the air. So come participate! We need all of you! If you're interested, send us an email, or call if you have the number of someone else who might be there or might know another number of someone who might be there, etc.

At 7pm on the same day, Keith McHenry, the founder of FNB, is giving a talk at the Rainier Valley Unitarian Universalist Center: 835 Yesler Way; Seattle, WA; 98104

Beehive Collective Serve, FRIDAY 3/13

We're taking a break from our normal schedule this week in order to bring pasta to the Beehive Collective event that's happening this Friday at the Ethnic Cultural Center from 5-7pm.

Logistics/Helping out:
We're hoping to cook at Sherwood starting at 4 (we don't need quite as much time as usual because it's in the area and pasta doesn't take too long). We still have to get permission from Sherwood, though, since it's not our usual time. If someone from Sherwood reads this, maybe you could let us know if it's ok! If not, we'll cook at Icelarctica (Isaac's house) about 8 blocks north of there. Call or email for address & directions.

We also need tomatoes. Does anybody have any tomatoes?!

BTWFYI: if you'd like to keep up to date with FNB, but don't want to have to remember to always check this blog and usually find that nothing new has been posted, consider signing up for the RSS feed. I don't know much about how this works, but one thing that makes it really easy is Google Reader. If you have a Google/Gmail account already you don't even need to sign up, then you can just subscribe to this blog by pasting the URL, and it will show up whenever there's an update.

Oops

Well, last Saturday a bunch of unfortunate conditions conspired to momentarily divest FNB of its practicability. In other words, we didn't have enough food, and we didn't have enough folks. However, we are regrouping for next weekend, and we will continue as usual, with cooking at 10 @ Sherwood, and serving at 2 @ Westlake. Get in touch if you want to help!

Attention: Dumpster Divers, or those conspiring to enlist in this category. We are going to start dumpstering more frequently in the coming weeks. Dates and times are still fluid. If you want to help out with this, contact us!
