Our book club is built on a foundation of friendship. Every time we meet the first thing that
occurs is catching up on what has been happening in everyone’s lives. It means so
much that people who have moved make time to join in when they come back to
Idaho. Katie even hosted in December. The book was The Girls from Corona del Mar by Rufi Thorpe. Thanks to Ella for
the recommendation! It was a doozy of a book that made for some great
conversation about what friendships can endure.
Katie showed up with a wide variety of beverage including champagne,
wine, and beer. She really knows how to
host away from home. We also enjoyed a Christmas Ale from Anchor Brewing from
our good friend Cora Bekker. This beer
is interesting because it has been produced every year since 1975 and the recipe
is always changing slightly. It is dark
brown ale with spices such as nutmeg, star anise, and licorice with hints of
chocolate. Try it next holiday season.

No time to cook or no kitchen. No problem! There is always take
out.
No one was hurt taking this photo.

Now, this really happened.
Jamie felt Katie needed a friendship exercise dealing with trust. Not really... they are just weirdoes! Loveable weirdoes! Next book club will feature The Thin Man by
Dashiell Hammett hosted by Skylar.
