We were eaters of a delicious lunch at Cork and Craft for a discussion of "We the Eaters". Agreeing that Gustafson was preaching to the choir, we were reminded of how fortunate it is to be in San Diego. How we will be appreciating that even more next week as we gather for our December meeting in Coronado!
Trudy has graciously arranged for our group to participate in the Interfaith Adopt-a-Family Program. We each were assigned a member of a family, with specific requests. The items should be delivered to Trudy who will then drop off the gifts at "Santa's Workshop" in Escondido.
Our meeting will officially be on Wednesday 12/3 at noon. I have made lunch reservations at Sheer Water (like last year at the Del) but am open to any suggestions. I propose dinner at 7 on Tuesday night (Chez Loma or Vigilucci's?) and a lunch earlier that day for our initial gathering.... The Rhinoceros Cafe has closed... but know we can find another spot easily enough. Sandwiches on the beach? Or the new Islander restaurant in the Rhinoceros Cafe location, featuring fresh seafood? Just start texting each other when your feet hit the island and we'll rendezvous. Trudy and I will be out and about, scouting, starting Monday. Please share any ideas or desires!!

However, the most anticipated ginger is our beloved Ginger B.! Looking forward to us all being together....
