With outlets in the residential areas of NW Thurman and SE Division, we’re very happy to see St. Honore’s prized pastries being made available to residents and visitors in the downtown center of town.  The spot they moved into has been totally rehabbed, so feels brand new with those strengths and weaknesses.  Its primary strength is how well its windows and light fixtures make it bright; its primary weakness is that it feels a bit small and institutional, making hanging out a challenge.

Today’s discussion topics included H’s kudos for Profile Theater’s focus on Quiera Alegria Hudes and her Pulitzer Prize winner, Water by the Spoonful; M’s kudos for the documentary Minimalism that documents the change in direction of two young professionals who stopped their financial careers in order to live more simply and tout those benefits to others; D then recounted his own history re teaching voluntary simplicity, and contradictions he discovered both personally, and externally in visiting the residents of Lake Titicaca in Peru.
