Book Club

I belong to a book club and meet once a month with the most wonderful women. I am thrilled to be friends with such great company. Today we met and had a really nice luncheon together. It was my favorite...chili and cornbread with waldorf salad. The table was decorated for autumn and it was really beautiful. For dessert we had brownies shaped like pumpkins and decorated with candies. Nan really outdid herself.


The book that we had presented to us today was called "The Last Lecture". It was about a man who had been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. He was a professor and was losing his battle but wanted to give a last lecture as a legacy to his children. You can see it online at http://www.thelastlecture.com/. The professor's name was Randy Pusch and he died this July according to Susan Plessinger. I loved the presentation.
