Friday night game night! We decided to play Scrabble. What a challenge it was! Trying to follow the rules while finding words with those tricky letter combinations certainly kept us thinking.

There was also some Hungarian hospitality involved. Delicious freshly baked pogácsa and cinnamon kürtőskalács. All and all it was a lovely evening!

Hoping…

Reply to Art as the Fifth Pillar of Health Outing to McMaster University

Terri! Thank you so much for organizing this great event at McMaster. It was just nice to be at McMaster in that glorious lecture hall. My synapsis were firing on all cylinders. Then the discussion of Art as the 5th Pillar of Health was essential. The entire audience learned something and no doubt will pass that knowledge and energy on…

This post from Ann Patchett gave me pause – the idea that her book Whistler (May 2027 meeting) was written from a perspective that it is to be expected/accepted that all relationships will end.
Perhaps an interesting discussion point for our meeting?
