Half Off Sour Flour’s Bread-Making Workshop at La Victoria Bakery ($80 value)

The Offer

Give a person a loaf and you feed them for a day. Teach someone to bake and you feed them for a lifetime. That’s the mission of Sour Flour, which builds community by endowing locals with nutritious bread, educating them on the art and science of baking, and empowering them with the means to bake bliss-inducing bread.

If you’re a baking beginner, then discover the basics of bread making with the Starter Workshop. Devoted to starters, the base for all Sour Flour breads, this fun and informative class will guide you through the process of creating and fermenting starter, feeding starter, and most importantly, keeping your starter happy. With this knowledge, you’ll be able to make your own warm, fresh, delectable, and nutrient-rich bread, instead of paying top dollar for it at local bakeries. Save even more bread by slicing into today’s special offer and receive the vital Starter Workshop at half off! Don’t loaf around and miss this delicious deal or you’ll be crying over spilled starter, guaranteed!

Sour Flour

Sour Flour strives to make high-quality, nutritious, and delicious bread available for sale to the San Francisco community. Its two main programs are Bagel Monday aka “start your week off right with Bagel Monday” and Bread Training or “creating educated bread consumers, bakers, and collaborators”.

Sour Flour was founded in 2008 by Danny Gabriner when, through home experimentation with sour dough baking, he decided to start a bakery with a twist. The first 1000 loaves would be free and given away to neighbors, collaborators, and anyone who expressed an interest in Sour Flour. A bread community was born and Danny started to enjoy this idea of reciprocity that free bread engendered. People began to sift through the woodwork, offering help and showing interest in learning the science of baking. While bread sales remain a focus for Sour Flour, neighborly bread gifting and bread education are their two major missions.

Take advantage of today’s special offer and build your own bread-making skills, so you can enjoy gourmet, fresh-baked bread anytime – day or night – for just pennies on the dollar!

“Danny (the guy who teaches the classes) not only has a passion for baking and getting the community involved, but has a good technical understanding of the bread making process. “–Erin E., Yelp, 5/15/11.

Salon Belle de Soir

Salon Belle de Soir, French for “beauty of the evening,” is a full-service boutique salon tucked just around the corner from the bustling intersection of Fillmore and Union Streets in San Francisco’s sunny Marina District. Their small team of committed stylists is proud to have created an intimate, comfortable atmosphere devoid of commotion or attitude.

Through the use of a Brazilian super nutrient complex and a proprietary polymer system, the Brazilian Blowout actually improves the condition of the hair by creating a protective protein layer around the hair shaft to eliminate frizz and smooth the cuticle. Brazilian blowout does not completely straighten the hair, and leaves the hair with plenty of volume and body. The hair can still be styled as curly or wavy hair. The end result is smooth, healthy, frizz-free hair with radiant shine!

They are open Monday through Friday from 10-7 and Saturday from 9-7. Take advantage of our half off deal today and book your appointment at Salon Belle de Soir, where elegance meets comfort.

Yelp user Kick T. raves, “TRACY is a hair genius! When people at work started saying they could see my split ends from a mile away…I knew it was time for a haircut. I was referred to Tracy by my cousin. My hair is long, black, and permed at the ends which I wanted to get rid of. I appreciated how Tracy discussed with me what would be best for my face shape and texture. Shes got a bubbly personality, is very professional, always returns my calls, and genuinely cares about her clients! They have the best Bumble & Bumble products also. She offers lots of advice and isn’t afraid to share her hair secrets.”

Yelp user Jessica S. shares, “I highly recommend Tracy Stanwick. She has been my hair stylist for both cut and color for the last 8 plus years and now is the owner of Salon Belle de Soir. I have followed her from downtown San Francisco, to Union Street and now to her new salon, located on Filbert Street. My hair length is “long” layers and I consistently receive compliments from strangers and colleagues. No matter if your hair length is long or short, the outcome is “excellent”! She not only completes excellent work, but she listens and is warm and welcoming. I understand the necessity and importance of finding the “right” stylist. This is a “5 STAR” rating!”
