Do you enjoy making dinner? What about the mental prep that goes along with planning meals that everyone in your family will like? These aren't trick questions—we know nobody loves these tasks! What if you could introduce some variety into your meal planning and make the whole process *fun*?

We're partnering with Potluck, a company founded by local mom Shannon Amspacher, on a matchmaking party. All you have to do is sign up using this link and fill out the survey. Shannon will collect the surveys and match you with another mom in our group that best meets your family's food preferences. Your "match" will be revealed at our meetup on the 25th. You'll then chat with your partner to talk through how to execute your meal swaps to make them successful for both families!
