Hey Stratford Festival, watch your back son, next year we take Best Performer in a Musical (Non-Professional) and Favorite Local Theatre (EXTRA-Professional).

I’m not editing it. IT’S OP-ED Fresh should make their menu items cheaper. Picture this, you hungy Happens often, doesn’t it? But you can’t pack THREE meals AND snacks for your 14 ½ hour work shift?? Do you think you have time? Do you think your schedule allows for such extensive PREP? ABSOLUTELY NOT! So you think, ok, I'll bite. Let's have a protein smoothie for breakfast, I’ll cook up some beans, some greens, some proteeeeinssss for lunch, a chia pudding snack, and for din din, we’ll buy. But fellas?? I’m in my luteal phase right now, which means I need tons of protein, tons of brown rice, some bok choy, TONS of TAHINI! It’s all in the chart: But where am I getting that? A fresh cooked meal? How about a FRESH cooked meal! That's where! Its walking distance from my work,,, it has belly food for my BELLY,,, But FRESH….. Babyyyyyy…… LISTEN! ………. You CANNOT be charging me $20$$$$ for some broccoli and rice! YOU CANNOT!! It’s undeniably mean. But what? I go down to the food truck, get my $6 veggie hot dog and fries? My tasty mouth loves, but sensitivity to oil DOES NOT??!! Fresh, darling, we could make this work! I want what you’re dishing out, but you make it so hard : ‘’ ((( Am I not deserving? Alright enough, let me walk you through my favourite Fresh menu items: Buffalo Cauliflower Bites: love these, the only reason I don’t get them is that THEY’RE LIKE 18$$$ for what for fried vegetables? They are good but stfu fresh Essential Bowl w/Tahini Caesar & Hot Sauce: this is what to get if you are a bitch and a lover, and want to be full under $20, or “full”, but still it tastes delicious makes me smile mhmmm ( this is cheaper then the BCB, ???) Dragon Fries: This is my mom’s favourite. She gets it every time, usually just on its own. And I’m like, Christine? please get something else in addition! those aren’t enough! but the lady does not listen. Soup of the day: this is for my latchkey kids who have no money. One time I ordered this with cornbread and I was still hungry after but it was only 10 dollars. Soup & Salad Combo: Isaac’s rec to me after I already ordered and paid for a Queen of Greens (see below), slightly nicer, more refined SOTD w/ cornbread, thank u IK! Queen of greens (only at Queen/Shaw and Crawford/Eglinton location): this is Essential Bowl after a summery sexual awakening. Just as tasty, with a little gingery edge. The ultra smoothie: this is what you get when your tummy is REALLY sore, like when you do a bad job in a show, or you want people to like you but you can’t read them and it's so scary, and you’re being brave, but it's hard. Almond butter french toast: I have never tried this, but REALLY need it, its only available during weekend brunch!, so I say we all pitch in on an Uber and make this happen. Liquid gold latte: this Ken H’s favvourite <3 he loves it : ‘ ))) ANYWAYS fuck you Fresh, but also dfuuck, you’re the closest vegan food to my work and sweet action, so I guess we’re lonely lovers, I’ll eat you, Bones & All unsubstantiated rumors: And if you got this far… thanks for not unsubscribing.
