Every month a group of us foodies and health seekers gather to learn about something new, connect with others who are on a similar path, and share a meal. We've been meeting in this way for at least 6 years and honestly, it's one of my favorite days of the month. I always learn something I didn't know (usually more than one thing),  meet new people, and always leave feeling fulfilled mind, body, and spirit. It's truly amazing what connecting to people with shared values and interests does for a person.
