New Idea!

I along with baking and cooking, I also love to read. You may have noticed, I have had a link for "what I'm reading" up for a while, which usually had a 1-2 sentence summary and a link to purchase the book. For the past year I have been a member of a book club, that consists of about 8 of my good girl friends. Our meetings are held once a month, and at them we talk about the book, eat, & drink wine.

It wasn't until I was planning last month's meeting at my apartment, that the idea to combine my food, drink and reading love hit me. Perhaps it was because I chose a book about a woman attending culinary school and she is awesome and happened to insert a "menu guide for book club" at the end, but I felt like there should be something, somewhere that brings books to life through food & drink. And that is what I hope to do. I will start off by first reviewing some of our previous books, giving a quick summary/review of the book and then offer menu ideas. Our book club has done book-themed meetings before, so I will start off with those. I will label/tag all of these posts "book club" so they are easy to access. Also, now on the side instead of the "what I'm reading" link, you will find clicking on the book will take you to my post about it. Enjoy!
