NOVEMBER 2011
Dear Friends, With over 100 flu shots administered (with almost no wait time!) and all the festive Succos activities, October was surely an exciting month. We hope to serve you equally well in November. We kick off the month with some traffic safety tips on Thursday, November 3rd and a relaxing workshop entitled Peaceful Me on Monday, November 7th. Learn valuable stress relief tactics something we all need in this fast paced world. As Tuesday, November 8th is ELECTION DAY, well give out a pick-up lunch at 1:15 pm. Dont miss out on our new partnership with the New York Public Library on Monday November 14th, when our BOOK CLUB GROUP meets to discuss its first book The Help. Theres still time to borrow a copy of the book from our office and join in. We will be announcing our next selection to be discussed in December shortly. Our November Birthday Party will be held on Wednesday, November 16th. Bette Grossman returns on Monday, November 21st to teach you the very popular trend of jewelry beading. Her group will be making impressive Swarovski bracelets to brighten a dreary winter. Space is limited, so sign up in the office and dont miss out. We look forward to greeting you on Thursday, November 24th, when we lay out a complete Turkey Lunch with all the fixings. The Choir of KAJ will be treating us to a gala musical performance to round out the festivities, just as they did last year. Music Monday on November 28th & Exercise Classes on Wednesdays & Thursdays continue. Moriah is very grateful to Mrs. Meta Bechhofer for her thoughtful donation to our Center.

I Ate Too Much Turkey

-By Jack Prelutsky I ate too much turkey, I ate too much corn, I ate too much pudding and pie, Im stuffed up with muffins And much too much stuffin, Im probably going to die. I piled up my plate And I ate and I ate, But I wish I had known when to stop, For Im so crammed with yams, Sauces, gravies, and jams that my buttons are starting to pop. Im full of tomatoes And French fried potatoes My stomach is swollen and sore, But theres still some dessert, So I guess it wont hurt If I eat a little bit more. Can you believe that 675 million pounds of turkey are consumed on Thanksgiving in the United States?
