I just returned to $work after enjoying a nice lunch with two people I had never met before. Last week on a blog I read about Noonhat, a social site where you enter a location and day wen you want to have lunch. The site picks random people who entered the same details and sends everyone an email informing us of our lunch partners for the day.

Today I had lunch with Julie and Kim at Mediterranean Kitchen. It was interesting because two of us are in the tech field, but one is a horticulturist who used to own her own business. Our interests seemed to coincide well enough to make conversation interesting but were varied enough that we had plenty to talk about. In fact, the only downside to lunch was the poor parking at the restaurant.

I'm already signed up for lunch with Noonhat again.
