Meeting #9: The Help

Who turned one year old today?!


The Bookettes!


Today's meeting to discuss The Help marks our one year anniversary as a book club. We celebrated by feasting on some great southern food - complete with grits, shrimp, and cornbread!



(Recipes available here)

Marit, our wonderful host, provided great "southern hospitality", as always.


Check out these cute decorations!

I do believe this is the same Bookette who equipped us all with these pins, a few meetings back:

After lingering in the living room enjoying our apps and discussion, and feasting on grits and shrimp, we honored Minny from The Help -- and one year together -- with:


A Chocolate-Pecan Pie! Of course we left out one key ingredient ; )
