In New York, the successful lawyer Carly Whitten is in love with her handsome boyfriend Mark King and she expects to introduce him to her father Frank. However Mark tells her that he needs to travel to his house in Connecticut since his housemaid has just reported a plumbing problem in the basement and he need to fix it. Carly decides to travel to meet him without previous notice and she finds that Mark is married with Kate King. Carly returns to New York and on the next morning, Kate visits her at her job to get information about her relationship with her husband. They conclude that he is a cheater and befriend each other. Soon they learn that Mark has a younger girlfriend, Amber, and they befriend her. The trio decides to team-up and plot revenge against Mark. CALL (860) 434-4127 to register.

“Quilty Pleasures”.
Will meet once a month (the third Wednesday of the Month) starting on January 19th at 10am. If you are interested please let me know. My thought is that it could be a group of people that
would come together to work on their individual projects. You would need to bring your own sewing machine although we MAY have one for people to share if needed. This
group would give people a chance to share your quilting passion, borrow ideas off each other and even in the future could look at hire guest instructors for a specific project if that is what the group wants. Please email me at sgould@oldlyme-ct.gov OR call (860)434-4127 and let us know if you can attend our kickoff get together January 19th at 10am. Feel free to bring some of your finished projects to share with the group and any you want to work on during this get-together.
The “Knit-Wits” Knitting Circle
Will meet once a month (the second Wednesday of the Month) starting Wednesday, January 12th at 10am. This will be a group with mixed levels. It will be a chance to knit together with others, learning ideas off each other and just enjoying the camaraderie. Please email me at sgould@oldlyme-ct.gov OR call (860)434-4127 and let us know if you can attend our kickoff get together January 12th at 10am. Feel free to bring some of your finished projects to share with the group and any you want to work on during this get together.
