It's October, which means we took a loooong summer break (like 6 months) to give everybody the needed time to spend with families, go on vacations, catch up on books, etc.
Now we're back for our monthly luncheon, and we're going with "anything Greek".
On the menu were the usual suspects a.k.a. Hummus, Olives and Feta Cheese, Greek Salad, Gyro Sandwiches and Baklava. We washed these down with a cocktail called Greek Tiger made with Ouzo (Greek liquor with a strong licorace taste). It was great fun sharing what we all did this summer and catching up with what's new in everybody's life while going back through our prayer list and toasting God for 6 answered prayers. As we all like to say, this is one happening group! OPA!
