February Meeting Wrap-up

The cold and snow of a big storm coming in changed our plans a little bit, but we still had a nice, convivial Alo meeting last Thursday night.  Although the speakers were not able to make it, a dozen moms gathered over Judy's creamy chicken and gluten free black bean - quinoa dishes.  We also enjoyed a delightful dessert of strawberries, cream puffs and chocolate.  It was great to see you all!
