Miracles and blessings to all for the coming New Year!

Plans this year involve far less sequins than last year’s gala in Washington. Carrying on what’s become a New Year’s tradition, six of us are together again to toast the evening in Minneapolis. (We’re from New York, Minneapolis, Atlanta, Charlotte, and Washington – I think we could have picked somewhere warmer than the Twin Cities!) Plans include a new restaurant in Minneapolis and tickets to see one of my favorite Twin Cities blues musicians. I’m looking forward to it.

Wherever you are,
may smiles be wide,
hearts be content,
and peace be with you.
