Broken Into Cary

As regular readers you might know of the many cities and towns where I teach Mah Jongg. I joke with my husband that if I were to break down in any Eastern North Carolina town I would know at least a dozen people I could call for help. And those people would all know a tow truck driver.

Despite my total dominance of Raleigh and Durham, I have never once, in 25 years taught a class in Cary, until this week. I easily have taught over 1,500 people in Raleigh in the last year and only one person from Cary and that was in Beaufort. So when I got a call from this cute business in Cary, Home for Entertaining, I knew it was time to break that Cary spell.

This business is a shop for homewares and bridal registry and a place for events and classes, like cooking and flower arranging. It is run by a darling family and it is just beautiful.

The bonus for me is that since it is not a club, people don’t have to be members to come take classes. I have loved getting to know Cary people. I will be scheduling more classes there, some daytime ones in the fall, since my evening classes in the fall are already booked.

It’s about time the Cary barrier has been breached. I love teaching classes in far off places, but being close to home is the best.
