Food is powerful. It binds us together during any family meal. It is one of the only forms of art that can cut through any man-made, pre-conceived barriers while uniting individuals as one. Food not only sustains us, but brings us pleasure and enjoyment. With that said, too often we spend lunch/dinner alone…feeling as though we’re alienated from the rest of society until now. Join Nashville-EATS-Out to connect with fellow foodies, have fun, and rediscover the joys of a fine meal. Never eat alone …

In February of 2012, I moved to Nashville, excited of all the possibilities that a bigger city would bring. Eager of all the places I could go, all the friends I would meet, and all the fun times that were to be had in said places with said friends - none of it happened. More and more time went by that I still really had not made any new friends in Nashville. So, I looked to MeetUp.com to find a book club. As I am a mother of a newly 3 year old son - and I needed a place to escape to every so of …

This meet up is for women to connect with other women in their area, to form lasting friendships, enjoy getting together to hang out, developing support systems, and having fun together. As women, we are emotionally driven creatures that thrive on connection and communication.

Maintaining our iden …
