Do you like to meet new people and eat great home cooked food? Well we love cooking and entertaining in our home. So lets bring the two together! We are an interesting Pakistani/Palestinian/American family living on the Upper West Side. Our food is super authentic and delicious. You will never have a combination of both these cuisines anywhere else. Potential guests must request an invite and tell us about themselves. We may require a connection on facebook and LinkedIn.

This meetup is dedicated to home-based business ideas. Every meetup we invite a home-based business leader to present and we open the floor to Q&A's. Every entrepreneur and new business owner is welcome.

Hi All! This is a forum in which we can talk about issues that pertain to staying at home with our children. Various topics could be, but are not limited to: putting a career on hold, leaving a career, adjustment issues with partners since staying at home, stress, joy - anything and everything. It would also be great to plan a mom's only coffee/tea once in a while to meet without the kids!

This group will work to figure a way how to give home sellers and home buyers a cheaper way to sell and buy.

And you love to make people smile with some great home-made Puerto Rican food because we all know that you just can't get the same good results when made in bulk quantity at a restaurant. Yo …
