#MagentoMonday Community Digest 2017.10.09

[sherrie]

Happy #MagentoMonday!

I know it's been a little while since the last digest, but I promise it was for good reasons. Two weeks ago I was in Brussels for Meet Magento Belgium—their inaugural event, and a fantastic one at that. Last week were celebrating our brand new Los Angeles Magento office. If you're ever in LA, do let me know—I'd be happy to show you around! (You can also check out the guide to LA that our team put together or find out where to discover the best tacos while you're here.)
