🍽 What to bring
A homemade dish to share at the food table
A notecard with the ingredients written out (we'll have extra notecards on hand if you forget)
A blanket to claim your patch of grass
Tupperware for leftovers — there will be plenty to take home
A friend or two — the more, the merrier
🕛 The schedule (12:00 PM – 3:00 PM)
12:00–12:30 — Arrive & set up. Drop your dish at the food table, lay out your blanket, mingle.
12:30–1:45 — Book discussion. Ending breakdown — final verdicts, plot twists, hot takes.
1:45–2:30 — Eat & swap recipes. Browse the spread, read ingredient cards, ask about the dishes.
2:30–3:00 — Pack up & leftover swap. Fill your Tupperware and head out.
📍 Where
Washington Square Park, San Francisco. Look for the table, the blankets, and the book stack.
I assumed tables are back for this one since it mirrors the original — let me know if you're skipping tables and I'll tweak the food section.
