Our last meeting we made the centerpieces for the luncheon. We made 99
flowers (we were told they HAD to be in 3s so we could not go for an
even 100)
The reason we stayed at Shirley's to complete the project besides the
good food and drink was also so we could watch The Good Wife together.

The next meeting is at Mary's with McHenry Group. Details to follow from her.

We are still doing the ??? basket for the group donation to Zeta Day- Trudy is collecting items for it.

Also, a colleague/friend of mine had her kindergartener daughter
diagnosised with Leukemia this past fall and just had a bone marrow
transplant from her. They have been living at Children's Memorial in
Milwaukee. I hate to ask you to collect one more thing but any poptops
you can save I will have donated to Ronal McDonald House. Also if you
can consider giving blood and even encourage having your children (over
age 16) to start giving blood too. I have been seeing where all those
platelets I give go and how much they are appreciated.

Just another Zwitter from Your Historian-Reporter:

NWS ZTA April Meeting - Essential Oils Class - Tuesday, April 6th, 2010 - 7:00 p.m.

Mary Walz's house, 9778 Dalton Dr, Huntley, IL  60142, 847-669-0573

We will be loosing stress and gaining knowledge by learning about and
experiencing first hand the power of essential oils.  They can help us
to increase our immunity and decrease stress and soreness.  They help
cure everything from headaches to  canker sores, sunburn and mosquito
bites, and clean our kitchens as well as those spots in the carpet that
never come out - all WITHOUT any harmful chemicals!

I hope you can join us!
