One of us has permanently moved back to the north coast, another of has moved into their 8th decade. And me? Well, I'm eternal, so that doesn't count. But even so, the chances of us convening regularly is negligible. The chances of us convening again? Hopefully less negligible. Nonetheless I'm hoping that the green of the left over gnocchi rather than the red of my left over linguini with meatballs (mmmm) is the symbol that counts in this inverted traffic light (with one light missing) shot.

Edit 31 Dec 2023: To the best of my recollection the committee never did reconvene. The member who moved up the coast died of cancer a little over 2 years later (PAD of 04 May 2013), and the other one I lost touch with a couple of years after that. If she were still alive today she would be in her mid-80s; not impossible, but actuarially the odds are not good. And our little gang never did snag that elusive Lotto win.

Cafe Moreso itself appears to have closed about 2 years ago. (2021; it's probably no coincidence that Covid was making its presence felt at the time.) Google marks it as "Permanently Closed" and the last reviews date from 2 years back.
