A Snipit from Nomad Cohousing in Boulder, Colorado

is the author of the message below.  It was posted by
Fred, the Cohousing-L list manager <fholson [at] cohousing.org>
after remving large html version and reordering two forwarded
messages to chonological order and digging URLs at end out of html.

He thought it would be interesting for the list to see some of the
back and forth comments around meals which small Nomad Cohousing has
had 2x a week for the past 12 years.

Hello Neighbors!

This Wednesday Neshama and I are scheduled to cook for all of you. So
far no one other than our family and Romy and Charles our newest
neighbors have signed up.

I realize that Scott, Darrin and Sonya, Nate and Soo, and The Luka
Household all have other plans. In addition, Halonah our daughter has
an orchestra performance that night beginning at 6:30 PM so we would
serve the meal and then leave.

What do you all think? Are any other household planning to sign up for
dinner or should we not plan to eat together.

Your feedback is requested ASAP.

Hello Again,

I have only heard back from Vinc who said it was OK to skip this meal.
I see little reason to prepare this meal unless I receive several
request from community members to move ahead.

Your final thoughts please by 5PM today.

Thank you very much.

Zev
