Come the whole time or if you just spend 30 minutes. All are welcome. You are welcome and encouraged to bring your own coloring supplies but, if you don't have any, I will have plenty and am happy to share! (coloring books, colored pencils, and markers). Part of the mission of this group is to provide us an opportunity to check out AND SUPPORT local businesses. So, please don't bring any outside food/drinks and, while purchasing something isn't at all a REQUIREMENT to participate in the event, I do strongly encourage you to try something from the vendor :) I look forward to seeing and meeting you there! ***\*\*DISCLAIMER*\*\*** Photos may be taken during the event to be shared here on Meetup so feel free to let me know if you'd like to be excluded from them.

Come enjoy authentic Ethiopian food at the highly-rated [Effoi restaurant](https://www.effoirestaurants.com/), or discover it for the first time! The photo shows a mixed veggie plate served on and with the unique spongy sourdough injera bread of Ethiopian cuisine. It's typical to share platters like this (adding meat if desired too) and eat family style. Some dishes are spicy and others less so, we can modify or designate as needed! After the lunch, we can walk around and look at the craft booths at the Spring Makers' Market, which runs from 10 to 4. [https://www.downtownsilverspring.com/events/spring-makers-market/](https://www.downtownsilverspring.com/events/spring-makers-market/) The restaurant is a 12-minute walk from the Silver Spring metro station. And of course the wonderful company of FFF>50 friends is the best part! Hope to see you! Thanks so much to Sandy for the planning!

Bring a book (or a few) you’re ready to pass along, and settle in for a peaceful time of silent reading.
