what wouldn't fit in the dishwasher
Last night was book club, and it was here at my house. I love my book club. Have I said that before? It's a great, diverse group of ladies. We read The Glass Castle this month and it was good- sad but interesting- but here's the part I like the best about my book club: We have a strict, NO GUILT policy. If you didn't read the book, you must come anyway. The book discussion only lasts a few minutes, and then it's on to the food and wine and girl talk. It's always a fun evening.
I made this spread to smear on this bread and a peach blueberry cobbler. Mmmmmmm. (If you like olives- make the dip. It's gooooooooood.)
These dishes will have to wait. I need a shower, to run an errand, and then we're going on a lunch date with my mom!
Have a great day.
p.s. Have you seen this website? days with my father
It is terrifically beautiful and thoughtful and heartbreaking. I'm warning you. Have a box of tissues at the ready.

Oh, that dip is right up Chris' alley -- I'll have to make it for his birthday or something. Have fun with your mom!

Sounds like our book club.. it's never so much about the book as it is about the good food, gossip and friends to enjoy it with!!

Our bookclub has the same policy! (And that book... I found it so disturbing. Can't say I enjoyed it, but it was interesting!)
That spread sounds delish...

My book club just did the same book and it's the same - very laid back and fun. I love it.

that sounds like the perfect book club. wish i could join. i wholeheartedly believe in the social book club... the book's just an excuse to get together.

Your website makes me yearn all the more for the days when I was home full time ... homeschooling ... doing craft shows ... baking all of the time. Those of you who are at home, rejoice!!! It is a wonderful gift.
