Bought at a Quince Orchard Library book sale.

Taking to the BC_in_DC meetup. Hope someone will be interested in taking this book home.

I brought home too many books from this meet-up. This one called out to me because I have a couple other books by this author on Mt TBR already.

It seems fitting to have read this book during the week of Thanksgiving. Lots of appetite stimulation. Of course, I don't drink wine; I have never been interested in trying snails or frog legs; I was revolted by my only taste of truffles; and I will pass on the concept of blood sausages. Still it was a lovely book to read, making me nostalgic for Europe, which takes talent in light of my opinion of most of the subject matter.

This book is going to December meet-up and will hopefully find a new home there.

This book came home from last weekend's BC-in-DC holiday gathering with me. I don't really need more books to read, but this looks interesting, so we'll see how long it takes for me to get to it.
