As the days grow shorter and late fall and early winter wrap New Mexico's landscape in a quiet hush, we can find warmth where it matters most—together. Join us on December 18th from 11:30 AM to 3:00 PM for an afternoon of shared soups and shared stories, where steaming bowls chase away the chill and laughter melts the darkness. Why December 18th? It's Esteban's birthday and there is no gift that would bring happiness to him more than folks coming together to share a meal and share stories! Esteban will provide cake, hot apple cider, and at least one type of soup. If you would like, then bring a favorite recipe, a tale worth telling, or simply an open heart. In this cozy gathering, we’ll nourish both body and spirit, savoring the simple joy of community in the season of stillness.
