So tonight was book club.
We picked a food memoir
to read “Stir” by Jessica Fechtor.
Excellent read. We made several of
the recipes in the book. We made Cream
of Asparagus soup, Kale Pomegranate Salad,
Saucy Baked Ziti, and the Butter Almond Cake.
We had a book shower for one of our members
who is expecting very soon. There’s usually 7-9
of us. It’s a highlight of the month. Our discussions
have gone many places. Books are a door to conversation.
By the end of the evening we need a book and date for our
next time. The blog picture is a book list from one of my
sisters, who lives far away. I asked her for some book suggestions.
She wrote it out and mailed it to me. I loved that she did not text it to me.
She wrote it in pencil. I loved that too. Tonight, I wished she was here.
She would have so enjoyed the food and conversation.
