A nut is a nut is a nut

And then there are

NUTZ !

As in The Mixed Nutz

The Mixed Nutz is the name of a book group.

Or it used to be a book group.

Now it's sort of a "non-reading" book group.

We, the Nutz, still read (some more than others), but we don't all like the same books, so we don't read as a group.

But, we do like to eat.  And we're less picky about what we eat than we are about what we read.

Once Upon a Time - - -

Many years ago, The Mixed Nutz started as a book group meeting once a month.  We would bring food (but of course), and discuss the latest book.

However.

We've evolved.

Now we eat out. 

We discuss everything under the sun, laugh like crazy people, and shed a tear or two from time to time over the bad stuff.  And we might even mention what we've been reading!

Here we are over the years -

Meet The Nutz !

We have to start with last night's dinner.  The cutie wearing the rain poncho is Susan.  It did look as though it might rain any minute inside the restaurant (we also coddle one another when the need arises).

and here's to many more years of life as a Nut
