This month's booksie
Based on the poll, four favourite books seem to be:
The Ressurectionist
The Road
The Secret River
Skin Lane
(Votes taken from some sisters and some visitors)
Bronte Trivia
There were six Bronte children, five females and one male. The boy's name was:
a. Steve
b. William
c. Branwell
d. Brock
The first person to name the correct boy's name will win a packet of cabernet jelly! So be quick!
Sing-a-long sisters: "Heathcliff, it's me, your Cathy, I've come home, I'm so cooold..."
Bronte Sisters recipes
Alex's cabernet jelly with fresh berries
This featured as dessert for a club meeting on 'Skin Lane'.
A delightfully old fashioned and whimsical dessert and much appreciated by all. Pretty bloody camp, too. I think this would have even made the Brontes crack a smile! Thanks, Alex!
1 packet of cabernet or merlot jelly mix
fresh berries, to serve
fresh cream, to serve
Make the jelly according to packet instructions and pour into a ring mould. Allow to set in the refrigerator.
To serve, turn out the jelly onto a serving platter and tumble over fresh seasonal berries.
What do you think is the poorest excuse for not attending bookclub?

I'll have a look in the bookshop tomorrow (Wed) and let you know. I guess the next book club could be Friday the 27th of June, or the following Friday on the 4th of July. Let me know if it suits. JASE
