It’s that time of year when many of us promise ourselves we’ll go to the gym more or learn a new language. But when making New Year’s resolutions, why not also consider some financial ones?

Here are a few suggestions:

First, don’t let inflation derail your investment strategy. Last year, some people may have stopped contributing to their 401(k)s as the cost of living rose. But if you can cut back in some areas, you may still be able to invest in your retirement plans.

Also, try to control your debts. With rising interest rates and inflation, your credit card debt could increase. If you can pay your bill fully each month, you can avoid getting bogged down in debts and you’ll have more money to invest.

And if you haven’t built an emergency fund, try to do so. It’s a good idea to keep three to six months’ worth of living expenses in a liquid, low-risk account.

Finally, review your investment portfolio to help ensure it’s still appropriate for your goals, risk tolerance and time horizon.

These resolutions can be useful — so try to put them to work in 2023.

Heading up the baking program at Secret Sister, The Rose’s adjacent Sourdough Bakery and Teahouse, is Neale Holaday, a pro pastry chef who’s worked at fine dining restaurants on both coasts. Before moving to San Diego from New York City, Holaday was in charge of pastry at the Michelin-starred Betony and at Marlow & Sons and Diner, two acclaimed spots in Williamsburg.

Holaday always has a seasonal fruit pie, available whole or by the slice, a seasonal take on sticky buns, and a quiche whose fillings will change daily. Other staples include citrus meringue pie, dark chocolate pie, homemade ice cream, scones, cookies, coffee cake, and savory gougeres.  Most of the baked goods, as well as the baguette, country loaf, and brioche buns, are based on sourdough made with a 150-year-old sourdough starter passed down from a local family.

Secret Sister’s menu also offers sandwiches and laminated viennoiseries.

Though there’s drip coffee and chicory coffee, the emphasis here is more on organic teas, sourced from Samovar Tea out of San Francisco, with drinks ranging from matcha on nitro to Hong Kong milk tea, spiced chai, and variety of loose leaf teas.

Hello Friends!

At last! Our Secret Sister is nearly here! 

This weekend from 10 – 2 we are doing a SUPER SOFT opening of our Secret Sister: a Sourdough Bakery and Tea House located directly next door to The Rose!

We’ve been working on this for five years and guys: good things are worth waiting for because we are SO excited to share the excellent goodies we have created with you. 

Our limited soft opening offerings will be available TO-GO only between 10 and 2 tomorrow and Sunday. So, roll on through for your pastry, baguette, pie and tea!

We’ll do the same thing next weekend with a more flushed out drink menu and then hopefully be up and running the following week (September 4th + 5th) with our full starter hours of Thursday – Sunday 8am – 3pm. 

We’ll see you this weekend! Thanks for the support!

Easter Brunch Pre-Orders!  Indoor Dining Update! 
We’re hiring!

Hello Friends!

Easter is this Sunday and, if you celebrate it and are looking for some good snacky-poos, we have some at-home brunch options available for pre-order that can be picked up Easter Morning any time after 9am.

Quiches! Beautiful Salads! Crudités platters! OH MY!

Pre-order Easter Stuff HERE!

Per usual, we will also be open for gorgeous, in-person patio dining all day Easter Sunday. We take a limited amount of rezzies so make yours before they’re gone! Which leads us to our next update: indoor dining… it’s allowed! But we’re waiting for our staff to be fully vaxxed before we go for it. That’s looking like it will be early May at this point. Thank you for your patience and it will be nice to enjoy air conditioning with you all again 🙂 

Lastly, all this red tier/orange tier, extended-capacity action has left us needing more staff! Specifically in the kitchen! If you know an experienced line cook or chef who wants to join and grow with our team, please have them send their resume to info@thersosewinebar.com. There are very few places left in North Park/South Park that are farm to table: this is their chance to stay in the hood and work with good product. 

And of course, Join our Wine Club! It’s always a good idea. 

XOXOX,
The Rose

Thank you!

Hi Friends!

We hope everyone is holding up and staying healthy. We’ve put together a fun wine class for you this week: Josh and Alicia will be talking and singing about rosé! Katie has picked out some juicy, weather-appropriate wines for this class so chill out and cool down with us by tuning in this Wednesday at 7 PM. Use this zoom link to join us and this link to buy the wines through our website.

We are open Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday and Sunday this week for pickups and delivery. Which means TOMORROW, Tuesday the 28th, is your only chance to PICK UP (1 – 5:30) or have the class wines DELIVERED TO YOU (6 – 8 PM) before the class! – (the wines ship to us tomorrow so give us a call before you come to make sure they are, in fact, there – they will 100% be there by 4 PM but could be there by 11!) We update our delivery and pick up hours every Monday on our website so please check it out so you can maximize your wine buying opportunities!

Participation in the class is free/donation based (no amount too small!) to our staff support fund : Venmo@The-Rose-Staff-Support-Fund. 

Starting this week, we’re opening up for a few hours in the morning on Sundays from 10am – 1pm as part of the #SDSmallBizSunday initiative. The initiative encourages San Diegans to shop small on Sundays. Most of the small businesses you know and love have gone digital or are accepting phone orders so we’re making it easy for you! Spread the word and share the hashtag!

XOXOXO,

The Rose

WHAT IS A WALKABOUT?

The South Park Walkabout is a quarterly fun-filled evening festival that showcases all the unique and independent businesses within South Park. Enjoy complimentary treats, live entertainment and special offers.

WHERE IS THE WALKABOUT?

The Walkabout highlights both the south and north end of the South Park business district. The north end starts at Kalmia and 30th St. and extends south to Beech Street. A few ways to get to South Park

• Take 5 South to 94 East to the 28th S
  treet exit. Turn right on 28th and then right on Beech Street
• Take 5 North to the Pershing Drive exit. Turn right on 26th Street. Head up the hill and make a left on A Street. Another left on 28th Street and a final right on Beech Street.
• Take 805 South or North to 94 West and exit on 28th Street. Turn right onto 28th Street and right onto Beech Street.
• The 30th Street & Beech Street intersection is the south end of South Park. If you turn left on 30th and head north you can easily access Grape Street and Juniper Street, where businesses of South Park are clustered. This stretch is roughly 10 blocks and totally walkable or bikeable for those who prefer, though it gets a little hilly when heading north.

See you there!

My holiday season started Thanksgiving week and it didn’t slow down from there.  You can read about my adventures at the blog here.  Now that the holidays are over, it’s time to take a deep breath and prepare for a brand new year.  Taxes are just around the corner, we are electing a new president, and the much talked about El Niño is finally here for much needed rain. For those of you who succeeded with a handmade holiday in 2015, Congratulations!  It was so great to see so many students in November and December learning how to sew for the first time. And for those of you who have “learning how to sew” as your new year’s resolution, we have our class schedule updated here and look forward to seeing you in the studio!
