Thank you for joining us in some culinary adventures over the past 6 months! Sorry so much of our material has been Twitter based since we have been wrapped up in jobs and school, but we are looking forward to a fresh DineInThe509 start with this new year! We are enjoying some time in our own hometowns and are eagerly awaiting our return to Spokane.  It is going to be a bittersweet return as Mary and Molly will be graduating from Gonzaga University this coming May.  Looks like we have to get used to the real world, but hey, that could mean an income to support our love of our local cuisine! Thank you for joining us in the fun!
