**NOTE: NO DISCUSSION OF POLITICS: 12/31/21 UPDATE**

**NON-ATTENDANCE / NO-SHOW POLICY**
If you have said that you will attend this event, but no longer are able to attend, please kindly update your status to "Not Attending" so that someone on the waitlist is able to RSVP. **Because this Meetup group is popular, and typically has a waitlist, effective immediately, I'm instituting a two-event no-show policy.

We look forward to seeing you!
Best,

The Great Almond Cookie Gathering (June): The Beginning
Calling distinguished guests, culinary visionaries, and seekers of higher understanding to join us for our monthly Yen Yen dinner gathering.
For centuries, philosophers have debated the great mysteries of existence:
What is our purpose?
What defines destiny?
Why does the complimentary almond cookie somehow taste better when someone else mentions it first?
At the conclusion of the meal, honored attendees will receive the Twin Relics of Enlightenment: the almond cookie & the fortune cookie.
One offers sweetness. The other offers vague life guidance that somehow always applies to at least one person at the table.
This refined and highly serious culinary summit will feature:
* strategic entrĂŠe negotiations.
* casual social discourse.
* analysis of fortune cookies. predictions with absolutely no scientific backing.
* and the annual-level emotional anticipation of the dessert plate arriving.
Cuisine: Chinese
Group Size: 6 Peopel
Dining: Separate checks
Parking: Free onsite parking
The meal ends, but the fortunes remain.

Lolita Picnic
DC Anime Club Will Host a Lolita Picnic
We will meet up in front of the Smithsonian Metro station at the top of the entrance escalators at
Mall Exit and then proceed to the picnic area.
For those who are unfamiliar, Lolita is a fashion subculture in Japan that
is primarily influenced by Victorian children clothing, as well as
costumes from the Rococo period.
Lolita has made this into a unique fashion by adding gothic and original
design elements to the look. From this, Lolita fashion has evolved into
several different sub ...styles and has created a devoted subculture in
Japan. The Lolita look consists primarily of a knee- length skirt or dress,
headdress, blouse, petticoat, knee-high socks or stockings, and
rocking horse or high heel/platform shoes.
Attendees are encouraged to bring food, since there will be a potluck with the photo shoot.
We hope to see you there.
For more information please contact
president@dcanimeclub.org.

Meet us for an Egyptian lunch at Fava Pot Falls Church
Let's enjoy a delicious Egyptian lunch!
From the beginning, Fava Pot kept their eyes on the prize: serving the best of healthy, home-style Egyptian cuisine in an atmosphere that would make their customers feel like they were amongst a family. They do this by sourcing high-quality ingredients to cook their authentic meals. That means serving locally sourced foods such as chicken and game hens that are antibiotic-free and succulent meats that are grass-fed. And they also offer what more and more of our customers were asking for: delicious vegetarian and gluten-free options.
Their motto has always been Eat Healthy for a Good Cause -through every purchase you make, they give back to Egyptian orphans in need.
There is lots of free parking!
