I love food. Cooking it, eating it, talking about it, reading about it, watching shows about it. But it seems rare that people in their 20s actually want to try out new restaurants and cook/bake at home.

We can go on themed food tours (cupcakes, French fries, tacos, ice cream, etc.), atte …

This group was established during the summer of 2007 as a casual, social means of discussing the books that have been sitting on our nightstands, or on our "Must Read!" lists for months, as well as providing the incentive with which to actually read them.

Hi, like many of you, I am home because of the lockdown alert put out by the governor. I am praying they find the second suspect and life can resume.

Many of us need some healing from our pasts (and present), most of us need the support of other understanding women. For whatever reason, this is lacking in our world as it exists today.
