Blue Christmas

Tonight was the December meeting of the Bluestockings. After our meal and book discussion, we settled in for the gift swap and planning our January trip. It's unusual for me to end up with no photos, but that's what happened tonight (although I did manage to get a picture of the table and the dessert before everyone arrived!). You'll just have to take my word for it; we had fun!

Book Wreath

*update*
One of our own, Chanon, actually MADE this wreath and Jean was the one who took it home from our December meeting!

If you have too many books, maybe this could be an option...
