FOOD: Are you a Carla fan? We are. So much so she's pushing us dangerously close to a vegetarian lifestyle. (Well, with the occasional meat or fish thrown in for good measure.) Why not partake in some leafy green goodness yourself over at A Taste of Green: an organics tasting. Hosted by the Green Home Huddle, "an online community for energy conservers, organic foodies, eco parents, and others who want to live sustainably and live well," they will serve up organic snacks; sustainable sustainable wine, beer, cocktails, and tea; and give you a gift bag to boot. Read more about tonight's free tasting at greenhome,huddler.com.

CONVERSATION: Eve Ensler (Vagina Monologues) and Denis Mukwege (Ensler 's longtime collaborator and Congolese gynecologist) come to SF for Turning Pain to Power Tour, which focuses "on the hundreds of thousands of raped and mutilated women in the Democratic Republic of Congo." The conversation and Q&A promises to be as engaging as it will be informative. Not to be missed.
