"You should have been at the first Cinna Dinner!", by Meloni Courtway

Where can you eat dinner with a home brewing specialist, a theater major, a rocket scientist (who worked on the shuttles!) and some guys in feathered hats? A Cinna Dinner of course, in Petaluma....

The final word on the renaissance themed Cinna Dinner held at Finbar Divine's is: Divine!!!...

If all the Cinna Dinners are going to be organized with such fun included, I can't see why everyone wouldn't want to go. Not all of them will encourage costumes, so all of you not so brave as I can safely venture out. If nothing else, you are bound to meet so many Petaluma Neighbors you never knew before. read the full story here


Come One, Come All
to an evening of delights most divine!
May we live in mirth and jollity and pass the time
with friends and family and with good company!

Sunday, February 25, from 5 to 8:30 PM at Finbar Devine's,
