Subject: Levain Bakery’s Cookie Grams are Back in the Oven for Valentine’s Day

Hello Georgia,

I’m thrilled to announce Levain Bakery’s upcoming Valentine’s Day event happening in
Georgetown this Tuesday, Feb. 13th from 5-7 p.m. The event will feature an activity where
customers and media can customize cookie grams to make personalized Valentine’s gifts for
anyone in their life. Participants of the event will also receive a complimentary Levain cookie tin.
The ooey-gooey cookies are the perfect, affordable luxury Valentine’s Day gift for everyone.

Customers will also be able to purchase the award-winning bakery’s Valentine's Day “Cookie
Gram” and festive tin from the Georgetown bakery, made specially for the holiday. I know your
readers love the articles you write detailing the best food places to try in D.C., so this event is a
great opportunity for them to experience more.

If you are interested in hearing more about Levain Bakery at 3131 M St. NW in Georgetown, let
me know and I will answer any questions you have and can connect you with a spokesperson.

Thank you,

Thea
