For our return to Jonathan's the kitchen provided the fan favored chicken piccata. Tracy was especially delighted. After the Pledge of Allegiance, I spoke of gratitude. On route to the meeting, I listened to Tony Bennett singing the old standard “Make Someone Happy.” It seemed to be a nice note on which to head into our meeting. I am thankful for music. Pete did the honors for the Four Way Test.
Ray and Kay recently visited with the grandchildren in Cincinnati. Ed Smith is happy that we have returned to Jonathan's. (We are grateful that Perkins Cove Kitchen hosted us this past winter). Erin was happy to be with us after missing several meetings. Melanie announced that Big Daddy's is opening for the season soon. Elizabeth Cutler had a delightful time at a performance of Jazz at Lincoln Center. In addition, the construction work at her home has passed inspection. Pete expressed thanks for all the birthday wishes on Facebook. Pete also gave a CLYNK update.
“Spring is sprung,
The birds are singin'
Telling us all,
Those CLYNK bags to bring-in!”
