March Meeting

Stephanie's book selection was Blink: The Power of Thinking Without Thinking.
 It is a 2005 book by Malcolm Gladwell. Do you know what the term thin slicing means?
Barb, Linda, Debbie and Karen T know!  We enjoyed a cozy evening at Stephanie's home sitting in front of the fireplace as we talked about the book.
We discussed the book, Blink, and related it to our own experiences. We debated the power of training and experience versus making quick judgements in times of crisis. Our discussion was sometimes thoughtful and sometimes hilarious. It was a great discussion and we enjoyed a delicious array of desserts from fruit and cheese to yummy home made cakes and breads. We also loved the family portrait and the story that went with it.
Thank you, Stephanie, for a wonderful time!

February Meeting

The February meeting was at Diane's house. The meeting was on Sunday afternoon at 2:00pm.
Margie and Diane hosted the meeting. I was out of town at my neice's wedding so I'm not sure if Margie was able to attend. The book discussion was about the book Half the Sky: Turning Oppression into Opportunity for Women Worldwide by Nicholas D. Kristof and Sheryl WuDunn
