Adventures in Boston Travel

On my way home last night, I was planning to go to Trader Joe's in Coolidge Corner (for yummy dark-chocolate-covered blueberries and soy milk), so instead of taking the Red line to Harvard and then the 66 bus, I took the Red line to the Green line. Easy, right? No problem. I left work at 5, walked to the Kendall Square station, and went down into the station. I'd just missed a train, but I got lucky -- another train (toward Braintree, but I was only going a couple of stops) was coming right away. Great, I thought. I was running early, but that was good because mabfan and I were planning, after dinner, to visit our friend S who just had a baby on Monday.

( Yeah, that didn't last very long )

A Conundrum

I've volunteered to be the point person for coordinating meals to be brought to our friends S&D, who just had a baby. But here's the question -- how should I get the word out? Do I:

A. E-mail people I know who know the couple and rely on those folks to pass the word to folks I may have missed?

B. E-mail the whole shul list, knowing that maybe 10% of the people who read the list know these folks (as they're relatively new to the community)?

C. Something else entirely that I'm not thinking of?

(D. Narf?)

Even though they're not going to be home before tomorrow, I'd kind of like to get the ball rolling, especially if there will be Shabbat food prep involved (what with many people doing their Shabbat cooking tonight). But I don't want to spam people if they'll be upset and therefore choose not to help out. At the same time, I don't want to risk missing someone who might've wanted to help but didn't know that the opportunity was there.
