Seven of the group carpooled from Campton south to Bedford for this meeting at Beverly's lovely home. Our appetites were satisfied by a variety of appetizers before we discussed this month's book. After the discussion we enjoyed several desserts. We will post Ann S' strawberry pie on our www.riverrunrecipes.com
Ann F. led the discussion of "The School of Essential Ingredients". Our reactions to the book were varied. The majority of group really liked it, a few said that it was okay, and two disliked the book. Never the less....the book provoked lengthy discussions about relationships and about food! We spoke about personal identify. Three of our members will be retiring in 2012. They will need to re-identify themselves.
Carol L. took our vote on the book that we will read for our July 29, meeting. It was close vote...but, the winner was "Old Filth" by Jane Gardam.
