Re: [BVARC] Thank you for a great night

Your Italian chili was excellent. As I recall, the serving dish was pretty well stripped of any leftovers so I think it was widely enjoyed. Welcome to the club. Great bunch of people who turn out to be good friends. If you’re not doing so already, I suggest appearing for breakfast on Saturday
