Greetings!

If you love books and food, and enjoy sharing them with friends, you've come to the right place.

Ten years ago, I found myself reading and cooking, and wanting to find a way to share these great joys. Book group? Too limited. But a book-and-dinner group with couples - that would be great! My husband and I thought of a few couples whose company we enjoy. Everyone was receptive to the idea of dinner, but some were skeptical about having "assigned" books. So we decided that fun was the most important thing, and there would be no penalty for not reading the book. Ten years later, some of the skeptics enthusiastically choose books for the group to read, and we all agree we've read a lot of things we wouldn't have chosen otherwise. Dinners rotate around the houses, the hosts choose the book, and somewhere along the line, we started tying the food in to the books' locations, so it's become an international adventure.

Friends, food and books - the best sort of feast!
