this month was my turn to host book club.
in our book club, the person who hosts makes some goodies, and gets to choose the book. i chose to read the happiness project. i’ve read it before, but it is always a nice book to read over and over, to remind me of little things i need to work on.
i guess i went with a bit of a french and italian theme, since i ended up making two kinds of quiches, baked brie, crepes with berries, salad with poppy seed dressing, and italian sodas with whipped cream.
the italian sodas were a lot of fun to make. it was my first time serving them, so i drew up a little diagram on how to make them. they were delish!
and, it wouldn’t be book club without this amazing, and talented group of friends. seriously, i love my book club!
our book club has read: (well, what i can remember)
the help
room
the hunger games books
the same kind of different as me
angle of repose
water for elephants
the education of little tree
life after life
jane eyre
something borrowed
the bell jar
sweetness at the bottom of the pie
the happiness project
so, do you have a book club? what have you read?
crepes and italian sodas are my favorite! and love your pants, so cute! thanks for always sharing such lovely things on your blog 🙂
We just had italian sodas today after school. I love them. Your table set up is awesome.
This all looks amazing. I'm such a fan of italian sodas. I used to make them all the time when I was a barista. I used to add a little half and half to give it some creaminess. Yum.
