Book Twenty-Six

November 16, 2012 @ Sally's

The Great Gatsby, by F. Scott Fitzgerald
 
An interesting conversation about the American Dream vs. the Pursuit of Wealth, the excitement of the chase vs. the reality of obtaining your desire, and cheating vs. fidelity, with a little side trip to Victorian England and the invention of a not-to-be-mentioned-in-public apparatus!
 

Sally's delectable chili, served in authentic Santa Fe Railroad dishes!  Doesn't get much better than that!


 Sally has the most beautiful decorations ...


 Five of Seven.  Can't wait until next month!
