Wow Roy, I wish I was in your area for these events, I would go to all of them, as long as they are in a A/C building.

Hello Roy Kelley - The Maryland "Foodie Fridays Offers Monthly Speaker Series" is a great idea! This is a topic many people should be interested in to live longer and healthier lives. While many people focus on exercise, eating right can be a benefit to many who never even thought about it.

Depending on what was on the menu and who was speaking, I might have an interest in attending these events, if I were in the area, haha.
