As you perhaps already know, I'm a celebrant of my happy little gut buddies, and have a penchant for eating well-cultivated germs in the way of fermented goodies like yogurt, sauerkraut, kimchi, and other pickled just-about-anythings. It turns out I'm not the only one. Ruth has been fermenting her heart out for the last year, and there is appetite for more of this healing magic all over the Lost Barrio. So, back by popular demand (thanks, Laura), I will be teaching a fermented, living sauerkraut class to a very small handful of lovely women. Here are the details:
Living Rubykraut!
Date: Saturday, March 19th
Time: 5:00 - 6:30 pm
Location: The Hillmans' (please RSVP for the address if you've never been here)
Cost: What?!? Yes, everything has a price. Read on.
So... about that fee. Athena at Ecdysis (see also, Black Cherry Burlesque) has been teaching a 6-week workshop on metamorphosis, and it has triggered much thought on the subjects of aging and transformation. While Athena has chosen (or been chosen by) beautiful insect creatures to tell a profound story of transformation, we will be using cabbages and bacteria. It's not quite so glamorous, but we get the job done.
That said, here's the Fee: Come prepared to share your story or your thoughts on change, aging, or otherwise transforming yourself. I, in turn, will do my best to delight you with cabbage metaphor, deliciousness, and easy, magical ways to remember how to make perfect sauerkraut (I do not exaggerate). BTW: not joking about the fee. No thoughts = no lesson. I love to share cool stuff, and I want something in return. Bring me your amazing mind and let me look in there.
Optional: if you want to take home a $10 pickling/sauerkrauting set-up (mason jar + airlock lid), please RSVP so that I can make sure I have one ready for you. You can also find this very simple equipment on amazon.com, or make your own with inexpensive goodies from the local beer brewing store--I'll teach you that, too.
Please let me know if you have any questions. Feel free to bring along another lady friend who might want to share the hilarious and healing story of aging gracefully as told through the eyes of a cabbage. I look forward to hearing your thoughts and stories, and sharing the beauty of good food, friendship, and transformation with you.
To your health!
