Welcome! My friends and I picked the Summer Solstice to offer you a sumptuous supper and a buffet of books to satisfy your reading hunger. A good meal and a great book—summer doesn’t get any better than this.
Each author is sharing a favorite dish, and the menu is chock-full of mouthwatering delights. Also, the menu contains the title of one of the author’s books and a web link.
Click on the link by the author’s name to find the directions for making the dish AND to learn more about the author and their book(s).
I invite you to visit each author, make a new friend or two, and celebrate the summer with us. Enjoy!!
