Spring 2009

Hello to all. Thanks for a great meeting last week. As usual Judy's home was warm and welcoming and we had a very interesting conversation about the last book. Please check the rest of the blog for info on our next meeting and our next book. Does anyone have a great word for this month??

If April showers bring May flowers then we will most certainly have many beautiful blooms next month. Rain, rain, rain....

Please check the comment section from last month to see some wonderful links for book clubs provided by Elizabeth. I will also post them on the links section.

How are you doing with this month's selection? I'm having some trouble with it; not the book or the story per se, just the content. It's hard for me to read such a gut wrenching story. Isn't it every mother's greatest fear?

Discuss our current selection here!

What are your thoughts on our past few books? It seems like everyone enjoyed The Shell Seekers! What about our current selection? Comments please!!!

Well, spring definitely came in like a lion. How about that snow???? I don't know about you girls but I'm happy the first day of spring is just around the corner!

March Birthdays:

Happy Birthday to two of our beautiful "Social Pages": Judy Breune on March 11, and Terry Warrington on March 26! My "baby" Julia Kathleen turns three on March 25, just one day after her Godmother's birthday!!

Thanks to Terry for a fabulous (as usual) gathering of our club for March. Terry's home has always been so warm and cozy and is a perfect place for conversation. And boy, did we have one! The last time we met at her house we talked about the book The Memory Keeper's Daughter and THAT was also one of our most intense discussion. Thanks to everyone for coming with your game on for that night. We missed Lisa, Sue and Joan and hope to see you three girls at our next meeting.

Our next meeting is Friday, April 3, 2009 at Judy Breune's. More details to follow. Please check the blog site for our book club for this month. Terry will provide a discussion point for the book at our next meeting.

Til then, girls!

P.S. As requested, I included the recipe for the spinach bars in the recipe section of our blog.

Welcome back ! Welcome new members!

Hello and welcome back to our members! Welcome, also, to our newest members; Peggy, Joan and Elizabeth.

I apologize for the tardiness of this post, girls. After the book club meeting on Friday night, my daughter came down with a horrible stomach virus that lasted the greater part of five days. To make matters worse, Mommy caught it and was down a couple of days as well. Fun for all.

I will type out and distribute a listing of all of our current members for our next meeting at Terry's. More to come on that one. Please enjoy browsing our blog and check "Current Selection" for information for this month's book.

I will post minutes from our meetings, information about our next meeting and our current selection on this page. Please let me know of any great ideas you have for our blog as it is still in the construction phase.

See you all next month! Robin
