The Original Vanishing Acts
As it happens, there may come a time when aspirations fade and joint efforts meet their untimely end. While moving on can seem arduous, and feelings of grief inevitable, from the ashes shall spring new growth.
It is with a heavy tomato heart that $™ indefinitely closes registration to The Dream Kitchen. Rather than mourn the loss, plz join us as we choose to celebrate time shared together with these shadowy figures of The Dream Kitchen past.
The dream lives on in all of us.
