Happy Birthday to us!

We celebrated our 1st anniversary yesterday :-) Didn’t really go thru any fanfare as we were all swamped with Xmas pre-orders and events and kind of forgot about it. I know, how unfortunate.. Luckily, Chris slug remembered and came to our rescue with a cake and we still had a nice little do. There are so many people we want to thank. People who have contributed directly or indirectly to our little neighbourhood diner :-) Without you lovely folks out there, we would have gone back to our day jobs by now.

YOU trusted us. YOU made The Garden Slug happen. THANK YOU so much!
