You know I adore my Book Club the Bookies. I do. I really do. They are fun and adventurous. Last month when the book nominated to read was Ruth Reichl’s Garlic and Sapphires, the true story of a New York Times food critic in disguise it was suggested that we too arrive in disguise….
and so we did.
Seriously…. I love these women. 7 of us dressed up. I laughed as each entered my house – and I laughed because these are memories in the making. Brenda’s husband (hot blond – back row) said as she left “I think you really enjoy this part of book club, the dressing up.”
I think we do too…
We are probably too old to trick or treat – but we can do this. 😀
I love that a couple of the girls posted their pictures on Facebook about their book club…
and Kaydi’s said…
We called her ‘Gwen’ all night.
Last night Angie brought us a Chocolate tasting. She had everything we needed, the sheets to vote and the chocolate. It was different and fun. I love that we go the extra mile time and again.
I love that we are adventurous. I love that not only does someone make a suggestion… we usually do it. It’s a way for once a month a group of awesome girls who love books to get together and have fun.
Book Journey 
Um, I want to go to a chocolate tasting. Yummy! Which chocolate won?
It was a mix of favorites Kathy 😀 We all had a chocolate tasting mat and we individually voted on appearance, taste, sound (yes – sound!), taste and texture… it was actually a lot of work to figure this out for 6 pieces of chocolate and it gave us a new appreciation for what food critics must do. My fav was #3 and it was a candy bar I had never heard of before.
What a fun group!
I think so 😀
Sounds like fun! I really need to find me a book club! I have an awesome critique group, but no one–other than online pals–to actually read with. 😀
If you cant find one, make one Liesel – thats what I did ad I still look back over the 11 years we have been meeting in awe…. it is truly one of my best decisions 😀
What a fun and unique book club!
Looks like you had a ton of fun together!
I do love your bookies! Adventurous, creative, and fun!
You guys are so amazing! I think you should ALL come to BEA and be part of an entertainment show! :–)
Your book club sounds like a lot of fun. I think all of the different ways you find to mix it up and make it fun really seem to pay off!
Your book club group rocks!!!
I can’t say it enough. Your book club meetings always sound like fun!
This is awesome! What a fun thing to do. 🙂
You’re lucky to have such a fun group. Love the teeth on “Gwen”. LOL!
