In January, when our friend Jeff Hnilicka spent time as “Someone in Residence” at WBSC, he was often seen carrying a deck of tarot cards with him around the space. When I asked, he told me that he always reads one card before leaving the house, and does a full reading for himself about once every week, just to meditate on all the crazy things he has going on (like many of us, he has a lot going on). When he read my cards, I was surprised at how helpful it was to talk for a few minutes with someone else about a question I would otherwise have left stewing in my own head. Jeff will be trading tarot readings for food and other necessities this Wednesday night at WBSC. If you’re in the neighborhood, bring him something and he’ll tell you what the future has in store. Conveniently, there are a number of businesses in the neighborhood where you can get food or other things to trade. RSVP here or swing by anytime after 6:00PM. S.H.M.

Check out Heavy Table’s excellent coverage of Thursday night’s 100-Course Meal! Includes some great photos and a complete list of each course, with ratings. Sitting through 101 courses, however small, has a curious effect on the diner. Each individual component — even if it’s as ordinary as a dollop of yogurt or a piece of spinach — is tasted on its own merits, discussed, evaluated, considered. The 101-Course Meal was, as the organizers explained, really a deconstruction of a 7-course meal; assemble the various components, and you might see something resembling a traditional (if lavish) dinner.
