2018 FEATURING ART BY
jaxon northon Evelyn Mount and her husband Leon moved to Reno in 1976 and began collecting food donations over the holidays for people in need. She and a group of volunteers have fed thousands and thousands of Northern Nevadans. Leon passed away 2002. Now in her 90s, Evelyn Mount has been a beacon of hope and good throughout my entire life. She has inspired me and countless others to choose to be a little more thoughtful and caring. The Evelyn Mount Community Outreach Center can be found at 2530 Cannan St., 331-3257.

As the saying goes, breakfast is the most important meal of the day. Really, it’s not even close. Lunch is just an excuse to leave work for an hour in the middle of the day. And dinner is a scam secretly perpetrated by the weight-loss industry to get people to eat a ton right before bed so they’ll stay fat and unhealthy. Breakfast is where it’s at. But it’s difficult to get breakfast
right. If it’s too light and airy, then you’ll get hungry again an hour later. If it’s too fatty and heavy, then you’ll weigh yourself down and want to go back to sleep, which defeats the whole purpose of starting off your day with a good meal. Two Chicks consistently nails it—perfect Goldilocks breakfasts that satisfy without going overboard. The service is always great, the Bloody Marys are delicious, and the farmhouse omelet is one of Reno’s few perfect, must-try dishes.
