A Month of Tuesdays returns to the Cellar Restaurant & Jazz Club (3611 West Broadway @ Dunbar). Comprised entirely of traditional plucked Chinese instruments, Red Chamber is an impassioned ensemble that spends as much time reflecting on the ancient sounds of the Imperial Court as they do exploring the realms of bluegrass, jazz, and new music. Pushing the boundaries of their instruments, this fiery all-female ensemble performs with unparalleled power and fervour.

Today's Vancouver Sun has this about the wasting of the food we buy and don't use. It isn't only an American problem - we all do it - and Dear Old Granny was right: "Waste Not, Want Not."
So here's a hint for you: Don't go grocery shopping on an empty stomach, because you'll be tempted to buy on impulse things that later may end up in the garbage practically untouched.
