Meeting #11b: The Devil in the White City

I forgot to post these pictures from our March bookclub meeting at Heidi's. So here they are! We didn't get a group shot, but we were a small group: Heidi, Rachel, Carolyn, Marit, and Christine (am I forgetting anyone?). 

In honor of Devil in the White City, Heidi treated us to World's Fair goodies: taffy and candies, popcorn, and Cracker Jack (which made its debut at the Chicago World's Fair).




And for lunch, she served up homemade Chicago Deep-Dish Pizza! I could've sworn we were in Chicago back in the 1890s with Dr. Holmes slinking right around the corner .... ; ) Well ok, we'll leave the mass-murderer out of the picture.


We had a great discussion about architecture, Chicago, the nature of evil, and whether or not we've lost some of that wonder and awe that was so alive during the Fair.
