WELCOME BACK FRIENDS! Friday, June 25 Last Friday Lunch, from noon to 1:15
Ladies (and Gents), Emily Winston, the founder and owner of Berkeley's Boichik Bagels -- which has recently been maligned by a local financial planner and made the press again (click on image for more) -- will be our featured speaker at our Friday, June 25 Last Friday Lunch, from noon to 1:15. The event takes place inside the Hillside Club, 2286 Cedar St., in Berkeley, and it's assumed that everyone who attends will have been fully vaccinated against Covid. Emily is bringing bagels for everyone, so please RSVP to me at whoisylvia@aol.com so I can tell her how many to bring. At $3 each, we're getting a special gift! If you haven't read about how good these bagels are -- even better than those in NY -- check out this column in the NY Times. Please bring your own topping or other repast, as we're not sharing anything except bagels. I'll bring a vat of Peet's coffee for sipping along with your lunch. Looking forward to seeing you again, and do RSVP for a bagel. Sylvia whoisylvia@aol.com
