Smart Women Crave Good Company by Anne Farnum

July 29, 2013 by Geoff Bevington Leave a Comment

Last month I hosted Card Club…60’s theme.  What screams vintage 60’s more than my Smart Women tray and coasters? Why, nothing at all! The Smart Women Company, “Wants women to know that the things we do make a difference. By living and breathing our politics and convictions on a daily basis, (whether we’re running errands, running the office, or running FOR office) Smart Women change the world every day.” How perfect is that? 

Smart Women products are my go-to hostess gift.  They are suitable for every occasion and for women of all ages.  They are affordable, fun and unforgettable!  And proceeds from the tray go to the Boys and Girls Club of America!  My tray and coaster supply sit permanently on my dining room buffet with my vintage-inspired cocktail glasses and they put a smile on my face every time I walk by. 

Card night was a huge success.  As the ten of us sat around my dining room table for four hours, playing six hands of cards, we put the worries of the day behind us.  For one evening some forgot about sick parents, others about work, children’s activities and overall day-to-day responsibilities.  In the spirit of Smart Women, we drank, ate, laughed and shared.  And in the end, we realized that we really are a bunch of smart women who do so much every day and who need a break once in a while just to have fun, celebrate and enjoy each other and all of the amazing things we do.  Thanks, Smart Women!  Next month’s card club theme…the 70’s.  Groovy, baby!
