This month was my turn to host the ladies here at our home. I’ve been away for so many of the last few years, we haven’t come here in a long time. Each month we go to a different home, somewhere between Utah County and Salt Lake County.
Below is our reading schedule with selections for this year. I’ve posted the last several years’ worth of lists below, in case you’re looking for a good book. I was out of the country and missed reading many of these.
I do keep track of all the books I’ve read, along with my reviews on Goodreads. I love that site and I love keeping track. You can find my reading history here.
Here’s a really good recipe for the salad I served with cranberry walnut artisan bread and pumpkin pie for dessert.
