Book Club - December Edition

Side Dishes
Ham and Salmon
Each December our co-ed bookclub has a book exchange.  This year we did it a little differently.  First of all, we decided not to discuss a book.  (That gave me time to tackle the Murakami.)  Second of all, we had a mini progressive dinner.  By mini, I mean that we only went to two houses. We started out with main course and side dishes at one house, then walked across the street to the other house for dessert and book exchange. (I believe that the invite said something along the lines of a Pie Smack-Down.)

It was, in my opinion, quite successful, and I think it ought to become a tradition.

Wrapped Books
We ended up with a Lynne Rossetto Kasper cookbook as well as Galileo's Daughter by Dava Sobel.

I heard Dava Sobel recently talking about Galileo's Daughter. She is absolutely fascinating and an excellent speaker. Hope you enjoy the book. Your feast looked great.
