NYC brunch girls - the best girls in town (+ a boy)!
I am thrilled to have met Deb and Mollie and Cindy (oh, and Deb's wonderful & really clever son, Andrew)! Jas, let me thank you so much for sending us all those beautiful things that will certainly help us feel better skin-wise AND taste-wise too!!! A beautiful gesture, like yourself. Jean, I had a mimosa like I promised. I really missed you, girl!!! Deb, you're such a beautiful person inside and out!! Thank you for that; the fact that I met you and you were soooo nice is kind of a gift to me. Thank you for that great smile of yours and for your easy-going attitude!!! Also, congrats on your son. He's such a clever and kind guy; you're a lucky mom. Sending you all my love and am reminding you I'll be expecting you in Athens anytime you decide to come (excavations or no excavations ;) ). Mollie, it's been a real pleasure to meet you. Had never talked with you in here. In fact, I knew nothing about you (and you about me) before today. A really interesting, chic, clever New Yorker and a true Virgo I 'd really like to get to know more. Let's hope you can be in Athens next time we meet! The same goes for you, Cindy!!! What a great smile you have, girl!!! Thank you for the NYC tips and for bringing us a bit of Jas and a bit of Jean with you!!!! Thank you for being there!Marilyn

Glad you all had a wonderful time. I so wish I could have been with you and to meet Cindy. You all looked lovely on the photos just as I had imagined you would. And what a gorgeous son you have Deb!!snorklee

So much fun!
Naja, Mollie and Cindy... I am so happy that I had the chance to meet you. What a great time I had. Naja mou, you are such a warm person and so chic, and I am blown away by the fact that you are fluent in five languages! I felt like we've known each other all our lives. And, thank you so much for the Creta olive oil. I cannot wait to use it, with some feta and tomatoes. :) I would love to come to Greece and see your beautiful city. Thank you so much for the invitation. Mollie, how nice to meet you! You are so dynamic, and yet so calm. A perfect balance. You have such a warm and welcoming presence. How fantastic that you live in NY. It is one of my favorite cities. I hope to meet up with you again sometime, when I am there. Cindy, it was also great to meet you too. Now I know two people in NY. :) And it was so kind of you to bring Jas's gifts.I enjoyed talking with you, and would love to trade "hospital" stories with you someday. Jean! We missed you! But you were there in spirit, through Cindy, and in our hearts. And Jas, thank you so much for the gifts. There was so much love packed into that pretty box. I wish you could have been there too. All in all, it was a great experience! Thank you all!jas

Those of us on FB have set up a closed group FWDGF on FB which you can access through one of the members. There is a photo on there. You will need to 'friend' Jean first. My settings are only available to people who are 'friends' already but if you 'friend' Jean I will find you through her.malkan

Brunching in NYC
Well, girls, we all know that Jean would be the heart, the core-person of our brunch-meeting. Nevertheless, I am still up to it, if the rest of you (Deb, Mollie, Gina and whoever else would like to) are still up to it too. So, will it be May 6th, at "Extra Virgin" restaurant, at 11 am? I won't be able to post in here after tomorrow, so, please, let me know...Marilyn
