3 WEEKS TO FATHER'S DAY
|
|
|

As June approaches, I can't believe it was a year ago in this space that I shared our news about a new grandson. What a wonderful year it has been, watching our little guy grow and thrive. It’s also been heartwarming to watch our son and his partner become parents.
It’s these moments that emphasize two things: the importance of family, and just how quickly time can fly. We know this to be all too true come summer. That’s why we’re planning to fit a lot in and why I’m calling this month at Jill’s Table “jam-packed June.”
In addition to upcoming events we’re excited to share with you, Father’s Day is approaching so we’ve put together some excellent gift ideas.

On Saturday June 10, we will welcome Wüsthof’s Derek Marcotte back to Jill’s Table for a special Wüsthof trade-in event. From 11:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m., Derek will be with us to share his extensive knowledge about these innovative German-made knives.
Bring in an old knife and we will offer you a $20 trade-in toward any regularly-priced Wüsthof knife valued over $100. We will take care of recycling your old knives, and a new knife would make a perfect gift for dad!
Also, a great selection of Wüsthof knives will be 20 per cent off starting today. Check out our Wüsthof link and don’t miss chef Ran’s knife-skills-inspired recipe for chopped salad, below.

Another great maker of popular gifts at this time of year is Lodge Cast Iron from Tennessee. Lodge continues to be one of our “go to” pans in the kitchen. We love that you can use it on all kinds of cooktops, on the BBQ and take it camping.
We are pleased to offer a complimentary Arva Flour Cornbread mix with the purchase of any Lodge pan over 10 inches. Check out Ran’s recipe below where she jazzes up cornbread mix with some of our Olive & Olives jalapeno-stuffed olives.
Perhaps Dad would like to join us for a cooking class! We have a limited number of spaces available in some interesting upcoming classes: check out June 22 with Emily Richards as as she celebrates “The Whole Hog”, or the June 28 gourmet burger class with Paul Harding. You could also consider our ever-popular knife skills class with chef Ran.

We have you covered!
Ending on a sweet note, we we are happy to share Anna Olson’s pecan pie recipe, below, from her latest cookbook Baking Wisdom. Mark your calendars for June 24... Anna will be in the store from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. for a book signing and sampling of delicious treats from her book.
We look forward to helping you with special Father's day gifts, and with all your culinary needs so you can make the most of precious time around the table with family this summer.
See you soon. — Jill
