Qamaria Yemeni Coffee is authentic, spacious, has a helpful staff, and I like their espresso. If you try this place on your own, they’re open early and late. This spot has been recommended a couple times and I think it’ll make a great stop on our journey. Come out Saturday morning for a relaxed convo. (Please keep your RSVP updated if you know you won't be able to attend, so others who can join have the opportunity to. No discussions on politics, religion or potentially controversial topics. We're here to relax and have fun. Just be respectful and we'll be alright. Pay your own way, and enjoy!)

Held & Healed: A Safe Space for Restoration & Renewal 🤍✨ May 16 | 3:00 PM Join us for an intimate and nurturing experience designed to help you release, restore, and reconnect with yourself. Held & Healed is more than an event—it’s a sacred space where you are supported, seen, and gently guided through a journey of emotional healing and self-care.

It’s hard to believe our group is 1 year old now! Let’s have another great meetup to enjoy the hobby with each other and have a IFP&P birthday celebration! Note: location may change.

If I could eat veggies like this every day, I'd become a joyful vegetarian! You won't believe how good their food is. Don't need any meat. They have a couple of plates that have a variety of dishes to taste for $17.95 or $19.95. And of course, you can order just one dish that you prefer, and we can also have a taste of each other's food or share if you want to (but you don't have to). Kootu is excellent and so is Bhel Puri. (I'll get both next time!) Curies are all excellent. And the breads are wonderful and so are the desserts. Once you go, you'll keep going. Have a look at their menu: [Woodlands - Pure Vegetarian Cuisine Menu](https://woodlandsrestaurants.com/our-menu-woodlands/) Put this address in your GPS because Meetup doesn't know this restaurant and might not give good directions so use phone GPS. 555 Quince Orchard road, Gaithersburg, MD All aboard mates!
