What We’re Talking About on Facebook
Jody Williams, the chef and owner of beloved New York City restaurant Buvette and co-owner of Via Carota with her partner Rita Sodi, makes her Soupe au Pistou with unusual—and very effective—restraint. There’s no sautéeing. Just water, no stock. Not even garlic in the pistou. You pile every last vegetable into a pot with water and then leave it alone to simmer for a good while. Yet what you get is still a bowl of rich, spoonable vegetables, not suffering from skirting the crowd. - - make it with us on Monday at 5pm over zoom

Meet: Zach
(one of our amazing bike refurbishers)
Last week Zach gave a bike that he had cleaned up to an Afghan dad just in time for his daughter’s birthday- and she couldn’t have been more delighted!
Then he gave 3 other families bikes on Monday- so that they too could enjoy this gorgeous spring weather
Yesterday he picked up 2 more bikes to work on
Thanks Zach: you are making newcomers happy (and healthy), one bike at a time!! 💕 ... See MoreSee Less
