Hi Wheatsville friends!

We hope you had a good winter solstice! And, we wish you a Merry Christmas and Joyful Kwanzaa!

I also hope that you have a great New Year, but we'll have one more e-mail between now and 2010!

Happy Holidays from your Wheatsville Deli! Christmas is coming and your co-op has you covered! We’ll have all of your holiday favorites ready to go, like our Vegan Cornbread Stuffing, Leek-Roasted Carrots and Tempeh, Vegan Mushroom Gravy, Garlic Chive Cheddar Cheese Balls and Rosemary Biscuits! Plus homemade Pumpkin, Pecan and Vegan Coconut Cream Pies!
 
Our hotbar will also be Christmas inspired! We will have lots of yummy hot food for you during the holidays such as Boarshead Honey Ham in an apple Au Jous sauce and Creamy Coconut Mashed Sweet Potatoes. And of course, vegan cornbread stuffing! This is perfect if you are running around, too busy to cook.
 
The Tiny Brinie Bar is perfect for Holiday snacking.  Castelvetrano olives are a fantastic way to impress friends and family with something they may have never tasted.  This olive is slightly buttery, very much like a black olive, but with the bite of a green olive.  The deli will also be making a new item for the Christmas holiday – Feta & roasted red pepper tortas.  These tortas are great with crackers and fruit.  Just take the container, score the side so that the torta will come out easy and then flip it upside down on a plate – enjoy!!!
 
New Year’s is just around the corner.  We will be making a variety of small platters for an easy quick addition to your holiday party.  We have a domestic Cheese Platter – only $9.99, an Antipasta Platter – $11.99, featuring a variety of olives, salami, and roasted peppers, and a crudite platter - $9.99.  Grab a bottle of Cashew Tamari Dressing and make this platter a real crowd pleaser.
 
In The Grocery Aisle
 
Last minute stocking stuffers.
Everyone loves to find candy in their stockings. We’ve got plenty of options at Wheatsville. There are chocolate bars of all kinds from Chocolove, Green and Black’s and Equal Exchange all on sale. We’ve also got Q. bel Wafer Bars and Rolls with milk or dark chocolate and peanut butter. If chocolate isn’t the right thing, try some Yummy Earth Organic Lollipops and hard candies in flavors like pomegranate and chili mango. Happy Holidays. Justin Merrifield, Grocery Buyer
