Instead of England's early Sunday dinner, a postchurch ordeal of heavy meats and savory pies, why not a new meal, served around noon, that starts with tea or coffee, marmalade and other breakfast fixtures before moving along to the heavier fare? By eliminating the need to get up early on Sunday, brunch would make life brighter for Saturday-night carousers. It would promote human happiness in other ways as well. Brunch is cheerful, sociable and inciting. It is talk-compelling. It puts you in a go …

Let's get together over coffee and chat about the novels of Susan Howatch, which have been described as follows: In all of these novels there is a meshing of Christianity and psychology, which Howatch uses as a tool to perhaps reach those “who say and think that religion is outdated rubbish.” If you talk to these people in the language of psychology, she says, “then you can say, this is what Christianity is saying. Learn the language." You don't need to be a Christian to enjoy these novels. Ther …

Since relocating here from NC, I've realized that developing new friendships at my age is difficult but I refuse to believe it's impossible. I'm hoping to establish an elite group of women that understand the importance of having true friendships. Life has taught me that quality is certainly better than quantity when it comes to my girlfriends, therefore this group will be very limited. I love to do the typical things girlfriends do from traveling to shopping but what I enjoy most is a glass/bot …

This group is for any young couple interested in hanging out with other couples who are Fun, Kind, Outgoing and Open-Minded. My husband and I decided to start our own group after trying out many other meet-up groups and leaving each disappointed. Our goal is to meet other great couples and make REAL lasting friendships, not just networking (like those "other groups" do). There was an article in a recent Washingtonian that stated that married couples who had many couple friends reported having a …
