The Evanston Lunch Group™ will hold its annual summer picnic Wednesday, August 23, 12:30 pm in Larimer Park, Evanston. The picnic will be a chance for all of us to remember Gale Adams, aka Tarte Tatin.
Gale passed away last February,
as discussed in this thread. She was an active and enthusiastic LTHer, and had attended most of the Evanston Lunch Group™'s gatherings for at least the last ten years.
At her memorial service, several of Gale's family members commented about how often she mentioned looking forward to chatting with and getting together with her "food group.” We enjoyed getting together with her, and her always upbeat attitude, too.
For this picnic, we’ll get carryout from a number of favorite places, and convene on the picnic benches under the shelter in Larimer Park. Attendees willing to pick up easily sharable carryout for the group should sign up as such; others are most welcome too, to share whatever is brought. I’ll keep a list of who’s picking up food, and from where, as well as others joining us. By checking the list the day before or so, those picking up carryout should be able to gauge the appropriate quantities to bring. We’ll do our best to settle up at the picnic.
Larimer Park is one block east of Ridge, and one block south of Dempster. Parking is available on Crain St, or on Oak Ave south of Dempster (which ends in a cul-de-sac at the park’s edge). Here’s a map:
