WS(as in Wah Sing) Book Club

The first WS Book Club (not including Hannah, who's taking the picture)

Our Mascot.

All our various copies of Persuasion.

Lovely Hannah discussing the book with Laurie and Halina.

Absolutely delicious Chicken Pot Pie...Maureen I need that recipe!

Last month, when a gang from WS went to Wah Sing to try the Lobster, we decided to start a book club. We had so many willing participants. Tonight was our first meeting at Maureen's place. Maureen made the most delicious chicken pot pie and salad, and everyone else made an appetizer or dessert. I made my lemon bars and chocolate chip cookies. Our book was Persuasion by Jane Austen. Over wine, tea and yummy food we discussed Anne Elliot and Captain Frederick Wentworth and 1800's England in Jane Austen's last work. It was a really lovely evening filled with laughter and good conversation. The next meeting is at Anne's in May. The Glass Castle. I'll have to pick up the book soon.
