We had our monthly meeting this past Sunday at Sabrina's (the only food place that can make a 1 hour wait in the cold totally worth it!). It was a shame that not everyone who wanted to come could make it, but we had a nice little group nonetheless!
We talked briefly about what we'll do for the November meeting. Right now we are thinking of having the get together at my apartment (it is roomy enough for a bunch of us), and we will do a potluck! Everyone can plan on bringing something they would enjoy sharing :) (keep in mind we do have one gluten-allergy member). It also seems like Sunday afternoons will work well for people, so we will probably stick to that format.
Maybe we can get a tally of what people are bringing through comments on this post, so we don't have any overlapping. I know my mom (Carol) already volunteered to bring her ebelskiver pan.
Check out the members page for a few new bios. Contact me if you want to add yours!

calendar
Our first meeting was really productive and resulted in a lot of new ideas for the group!
There are two main ideas, which will be the backbone for the group:
1) We will have monthly meetings that will happen on a date when the majority of people can get together. Beforehand we will 'vote' on the topic of the meeting (see the new tab at the top of the screen). Majority vote will win the topic.
So you get the idea, some topics we came up with were: a one-off book read, an informal and informational yoga session, a wine tasting meeting, a meeting about planting an urban garden, a lesson on jam making and preserving, time management lesson, etc.
2) On our website we will have an events calendar about local happenings that we would like to go to. Anyone can view this calendar or add events to it. If there's an event you want to add to the calendar, post it on the website or email us at womeninphilly @ gmail.com.
Hopefully this way we can benefit from each other's knowledge and learn about cool things going on in and around Philly! If there's an event that you want to attend you can also post on the website to see who else is going :)
For example, coming up this weekend is the Rivercity Festival in Penn Treaty Park, Fishtown, on Monday there's a free yoga class at juju organics, and then Friday has First Friday happenings in Philly and Wilmington (I'm going to the Wilmington First Friday with some friends!)
So check out the calendar and get voting on October's meeting topic!!!
