Book Club

Last night was our monthly Book Club at Svava's beautiful Land Park home. We discussed The Alchemist and had a Tapa's party along with it, to see my Tapa recipe, look at Crispy Potatoes with Tangy Tomato Sauce (Patatas Bravas) to the right. We have grown to 16 women, although only 11 came last night, all with her own amazing personality. One of our newest members is a food and wine reviewer for Sacramento Magazine, Elaine. She brought several Spanish wines for us to taste and, although my preference is red, I fell in love with a white, 2004 Lusco de Miño Albariño Rias Biaxas. She also made two pies, a fruit and a pecan with a whole wheat crust that was the flakiest homemade crust I have ever tasted. Mouthwatering!
