This Week’s Lunch Specials!

This Week at Mon Ami

Greetings, mes amies!

Our little shop is hopping this week, with a fabulous menu of lunch specials and new products arriving, including a whole case of unbelievably delicious hand-crafted chocolates and decadent desserts from our friends at Coastal Mist Chocolates in Bandon! (see above)  This little delicacies are beautiful works of art!

 

Also in the shop are some amazing new bags & backpacks from Rice Love.  I met these folks a couple of months ago on  one of my trips and fell in love with what they’re doing to create work and educational opportunities for women in India.  Each bag is made with recycled rice bags, and every bag sold purchases an additional bag of rice that goes right back to their village.  Mon Ami is now supporting cottage industry projects for women that support recycling & repurposing in India, Nepal (felted bags & purses), Haiti (punched tin artwork), and Vietnam (planting buckets made with recycled tires).   Rice Love is a new company, less than a year old, but has already made a huge impact in two villages.    We’re excited to partner with them and support their efforts!

 

Estate Sale:  This Friday & Saturday, June 5-6, from 9am to 3pm, we’ll be conducting an estate sale at #5 Park Village Drive.  This is a GREAT sale!  There’s a beautiful king-size bedroom suite, living room furniture, Sansung washer & driver, oodles of tools, toolboxes, refrigerator, flat screen televisions …. don’t miss this one!  (Web album will be posted on Wednesday.)

 

Here’s this week’s lunch specials at the Mon Ami Cafe, courtesy of the always creative and ever stylish fashion maven, Chef Diane!
