    We have received a request for zoom meetings which are more accessible to European time zones. Currently all our zooms have been in the evening Eastern time, and that places it in the middle of the night in Europe.

    We definitely plan to do at least one such session soon, and if we have enough interest we will do it regularly. Of course nothing stops our current European participants from organizing their own zooms, but for the maximum benefit of all I am sure our "American hemisphere" friends would like to meet and interact with the Europeans.

    The first obvious choice for us to open this up to the widest audience would be for us to set something on a Saturday in the morning or early afternoon Eastern time. Possibly 1:00 or 2:00 pm Eastern would make it an evening session for Europe and still not too early for California (?)

    If you are interested in participating in a Saturday zoom at around 1:30 Eastern USA time please respond to this thread and we will get something set up as soon as the next couple of weeks. At least at the first one focus would be to spend time just getting to know our European friends better.

    We have set a date:
    ---Special Zoom on February 25th for the European Time Zone

    -------Open to all forum members (regardless of member level)

    Time: 2pm Eastern Time US -- (which would be 8pm in Germany)

    I hope that this time might work for EricR, @waterholic, Titus and anyone else in Europe.

    Everyone interested in attending please RSVP here in this thread and we will get the Zoom link to you.

Finding Things At EpicureanFriends.com

What's the best strategy for finding things on EpicureanFriends.com? Here's a suggested search strategy:

  • First, familiarize yourself with the list of forums. The best way to find threads related to a particular topic is to look in the relevant forum. Over the years most people have tried to start threads according to forum topic, and we regularly move threads from our "general discussion" area over to forums with more descriptive titles.
  • Use the "Search" facility at the top right of every page. Note that the search box asks you what section of the forum you'd like to search. If you don't know, select "Everywhere." Also check the "Search Assistance" page.
  • Use the "Tag" facility, starting with the "Key Tags By Topic" in the right hand navigation pane, or using the "Search By Tag" page, or the "Tag Overview" page which contains a list of all tags alphabetically. We curate the available tags to keep them to a manageable number that is descriptive of frequently-searched topics.
