Does anyone have a person in mind they think would make a good fit for our team? If not, Lisa, can you pick up a hitchhiker in the lounge so we can continue on?

That's amazing Lisa! I'm hoping to get to all 50 next year. I fell short in 2020.
I read this last year and thoroughly enjoyed it. Have fun!!
Has anyone heard from Abir? I sent her a PM a few days ago and don't have a response. I think if we don't hear from her by Christmas, we look for a hitchhiker to take her place for our next itinerary.

Thanks Sally. I missed the message post - I was just looking at the SS and didn't see a book posted. Maybe I missed it there too? If so, I'm sorry.

I loved that book too!
I liked this challenge too and we had a great team!
I passed out the meals if you have a chance to check it Tammie, that would be awesome!
You're welcome. I made names for all the menu items, and discovered that one of our meals was missing an ingredient. I sacrificed a dessert to fix it so we only have 235 meals.
I'll take a stab at it.
