I Could Really Use Some Sort Of Herbal Refreshment!

Well it’s April 20th in two days and that means 711s everywhere are being raided for chips, frozen pizzas and hotdogs across the country.  If you don’t understand why, we can fill you in.  “420” is a universal name for smoking marijuana.  While there are theories that it refers to police codes or Marijuana laws, the phrase actually originated because students in San Rafael High School in the 70s would meet at 4:20pm to smoke weed. Obviously this code spread quickly and the term was adopted by most.  So on April 20th, or 4/20, hemp enthusiasts ban together to celebrate the herbal remedy.

Now before the outrage that we are even braving this topic, remember that California legalized recreational marijuana use effective January 1, 2018.  Because this day is going to be the first 4/20 since the law was implemented, we are guessing most people are going to step up their game.  Here is a full day menu that celebrates everything marijuana. 

 

See you at the dinner table,
