Heather hosted a group of 7 of us for a shark-themed discussion of Unbroken by Laura Hillenbrand. Heather had two round tables adjacent to one another like the two rafts in the book, with a mouthful of water and a piece of chocolate at each place and stuffed sharks as decoration. Nice touches!
Heather served ravioli with a delicious yogurt-based sauce, which was complemented by Leann's beautiful green salad and Nancy B.'s yummy roasted veggies. Karen made 1940's gumdrop cookies, and I believe it was Mary Beth who made lemon/fruit squares. I'm sure there was more; please forgive me for what I left out!
Everyone like the book a lot, even Becky, to whom it gave nightmares. We mused about what we would have done (most of us thought we'd have eaten the chocolate too), and guessed we might not have survived it all like Louie did.
