Left to Right, Top to Bottom: Shaila, Dionne, Lee, Tianna, David, Vivia, Ashley, Mary Alice and James

These past few months have been hard for many and we’re grateful to have such wonderful employees who have weathered this storm with us.

To show our appreciation, we bought custom umbrellas and rain jackets for our entire internal office! With all the rain we’ve been having lately, this rainwear came just in time!

Celebrating Five Years With Astyra

Victor and Kathy
Astyra loves to celebrate everything from birthdays to babies!
 
To celebrate Victor’s five year anniversary with Astyra, we gifted him and his wife, Kathy a vegan cooking class at Mise En Place.
 
In French, mise en place means to have all of the ingredients prepared before starting to cook. This technique allows one to create meals faster. However, to Richmonders, Mise En Place is a culinary school offering a variety of classes including Puerto Rican soul food, summer eats and perfect-crust pizzas.
 
The couple made a delicious five-course meal that included a vegan “chicken” salad, fiesta black bean salad, curried tempeh, quinoa tabouli and key lime pie.
