Hopework-l Mailing List: Re: Invitation to Hopework Supper this Sunday!

[Katherine VonDeLinde (katvondelinde]

I am so excited to actually be able to attend some of the circle suppers
this year.  I will be coming on Sunday and am planning on bringing some
sparkling non-alcoholic beverage (perhaps cider or something else autumnal).
 See you soon!
