Things happening in San Diego this Summer – Repost this everywhere!

Here’s a list of some of what’s going on in San Diego this Summer (Compliments of Shelby)!

Feel free to send it to friends, or put it on your Facebook/LinkedIn/Google+, etc.

If you’d like to create a Meetup, so that you have people to go with or meet you there? Log onto San Diego Foodies, join and send me a note about what you’re interested in being an Assistant Organizer for.

And don’t forget the 4 most important dates: June 16, 21, 28 and 30! Come see me at The Fairgrounds Cooking (Infield Pavilion Stage)!

Happy Eating,

Chef Marian
