Here’s to the ladies who lunch

October can be a great month for the Ladies who Lunch. The food might not be particularly filling, but the stories of people helped by the women sitting around the tables provide much more substantial satisfaction. That was certainly Cokie’s experience at a lunch last week with our daughter in Washington, and one this week with our daughter-in-law in Raleigh as local women’s giving circles — great groups of women who band together to better their communities — honored their awardees.
