FCM Book Club: Little Bee

During last month's meeting of FCM Book Club we discussed Little Bee by Chris Cleeve.  This book is a deeply moving and often heartbreaking story.  The gathering was hosted by Katie Ashby.

Katie decided to depart from our normal theme of picking food and drinks that go along with the story because there was absolutely no Nigerian cuisine that looked the least bit appealing to her!  We think she made a great choice. On the menu were appetizers of fresh sliced cucumbers with a variety of toppings like hummus and feta, grilled  clam pizza, a prosciutto and peach pizza, and fresh corn salad.

Dessert was a toasted coconut and watermelon parfait.  Delicious!

Our book club has come full circle this year since we started out with Katie hosting.  Thanks for another great time Katie!


No seriously.
