Cook Create Celebrate June 2018

 JUNE. ISSUE 69. 2018
Marcels Culinary Experience
Summer is here and school is out, which means lazy summer days give way to impromptu fun in the sun or relaxing evenings around the fire pit. At Marcel's, we believe summertime is the perfect opportunity for those casual backyard get-togethers in the neighborhood, park, or lake house. And we have the perfect accessories to help those gatherings be special. With picnic baskets from PicnicTime to the Juliska Al Fresco Melamine collection or new linens from Couleur, we know how to make summertime entertaining easy and carefree.
  
Father's Day is June 17th and what better way to make dad feel special than with a spice blend that the kids make just for him. Or stock up on your own special spices and rubs with our June Food Promotion.
 
June is filled with fun summertime activities from Wines and Finds to the Farmer's Market, remember to take advantage of all that summer in Glen Ellyn has to offer.
 
And don't forget our kitchen is always bustling with activity all summer long. Take a look at some of this month's fabulous classes and grab a friend or two for a fun afternoon or evening out!
SPICE UP DAD WITH MARCEL'S

Stop in Saturday, June 16th anytime from 11 am to 2 pm for a drop-in Dad's day activity the kids (ages 4-12) can enjoy and gift dad for Father's Day. We will be spicing up Dad's day with a specialty spice rub the kids will make on site and package in a sturdy, functional glass Weck jar with lid. Kids can personalize a card to attach to the spice jar. Each assembled spice jar is $8 each or 2 for $15. Be sure to drop in on the 16th so you can spice up dad with something he'll be sure to enjoy!
