Good morning! Coffee Cup and I are basking in the early morning light (or lack there of) and still basking in the events of last nights book club.
I don’t think I have said it yet in November…
I love my book club. 😎
Last night we reviewed what I would consider a long-awaited review on a large read – and a potentially controversial book. To be honest, I struggled with it too. Yet the Bookies come through and I don’t know why they surprise me, but they do – in good ways.
I am not going to talk about the book yet because the review is coming up later today. So instead now I am giving you the pictures from our Italian potluck, themes after the book, as well as the pictures of our baby shower we had at book club for one of our members.

I know, I know… I should have grabbed pictures before everyone dived into the food. We had a penne, chicken, and sausage pasta, a tossed green Italian salad, Tiramisu, french bread, homemade mozzarella, cake, and more.

Today is another crazy Wednesday for me. I have another event planning for tonight – this one however is smaller than last weeks. So work this morning until mid afternoon, gym, then back to work for security training followed by Leadership Training (which is the event I am referring to).
Tomorrow is the first Zumba class and I am soooo looking forward to that.
Have a super fab day everyone 😀




What a nice book club you have, great food, great people!
We have a fun and above and beyond the book discussion which is what i really like 🙂
YUMMY! It’s a good job it’s too much of a treck from England to Minnesota or I would be gatecrashing! 😉
I would love to have you!
I love Italian food especially their salads….yesterday cookies today sausage pasta……I think my diet is going to go for a toss if I see more food on this blog !
Waiting patiently for the reviews amidst a lot of noise pollution ( the neighborhood boys are bursting crackers) and sugar free chocolates (misery is the name of my diet)
LOL Fiza… and the next few days – cookie recipes 🙂
I keep thinking about Zumba but am chicken to try!
Jill – you can do it! I am going early to make sure I reserve a back row…LOL 😀
I want to be in a book club like that one! I started to write a book about the “gourmet/book club” that I belonged to in the seventies, but after the initial spurt of energy, I set it aside.
I may get back to it. Meanwhile, I LOVE Italian food, and Tiramisu is one of those guilty pleasures that I’ve enjoyed occasionally.
Love the photos….
Laurel a book about a book club would be fantastic…. hmmm…. now you have me thinking 😀

Oh I read that one and really liked it – I do like books about books. 😀
Now I am wondering what the book is. Um dare I ask French Bread at an Italian pot luck??
Post is coming soon…. 😉
The Italian food looks fab! I hope you have a great time at you Zumba classes. I’ve considered joining a local class in the past, but am not ready yet.
Thanks Alyce – we start tomorrow (Thursday) at 3:30. I have about 5 girls I have talked into joining me. We are all a little nervous but I told them laughter burns calories too 🙂
Looks like your book club is a lot like mine…FUN!!!
They are the best groups aren’t they Kathleen? 😀
