As has become our tradition, rather than holding a regular book club meeting this month, we had a Christmas potluck. This year, Julie and Bob hosted the event with a cozy fire burning and their home decked out for Christmas. Annie and Paul, Christe and Steve, Ellen and Jeff, Jo and John, Scott, Julie and Bob, Linda and Jim, and Nanc attended. As always, it was a delightful evening with dear friends.
