This month book club read
The Secret Garden. It was a choice between this and T
he Omnivore's Dilemma. We chose redemption over castigation. I found
The Secret Garden Cookbook at the library and dropped into the lap of the host. She rose to the challenge and made a beautiful meal of roast chicken with bread sauce, mint peas, and roasted carrots. The piece de la résistance was the summer pudding. Made by smashing white bread into a mold, slathering it with butter and then dumping in cherry preserves and allowing it to sit over night. Topped with whipped cream it was like eating jelly sandwiches, but better!
