October Book Club

It's recap time!

Thanks to Elizabeth for hosting a fun night! For those of you that didn't make it, Elizabeth's new place is great! It's on the 52nd floor, it's way up in the sky, it's super cute! And the spread was excellent, I will post some recipes later.

Unfortunately, only one member read the book and it's really unfortunate because it sounded like a book we could all relate to (maybe not the saving money for a year but the career girls in the city part). Kathy also contacted the authors of the book and they sent her discussion questions. Oh well, we will try again next month, wait did we even pick a book for next month? Oops.


Well first off we have a few things for Book Club to celebrate this month, congrats to Rachel on the new job, congrats to Elizabeth for taking part in a boot camp, congrats to Kathy on the new home in Lincoln Square, and yeah to Lisa for booking a big trip to Europe in December. And of course a big woot woot to the two new members for attending last night, I hope you liked your first Book Club!!

Since we didn't talk about the book, here is what we did talk about...nuns, the history of Book Club, Halloween costumes, this blog, hair removal (it wouldn't be book club without this topic), dating, clubbin' in the D, winning contests, breast feeding in public, broken thumbs, juicy stories about the "down low" (too juicy to share on the blog- sorry ladies that missed last night), Bridezillas, roadies, Kim Kardashian, plastic surgery, eharmony, wine consumption on weeknights, Carmen Harlen, and best man speeches.

Memorable Quotes of the Night:
"You feel like a gazelle amongst a bunch of lions."
"You don't have a beard around your nipples."
"I don't want a pen pal."
"The club was all white, the decor, me and the decor were white."
"Are you missing my black teeth?" -via text from Katie


Weirdest pic ever! Ha!

Elizabeth didn't make it to her "Other BC" this morning.

Well (mom voice), sounds like that was a fun time.

  1. Oh I just really heart this blog! Woohoo for new members!

    BTW, I should have brought this up in our plastic surgery discussion but there was a really good living social deal the other day for Botox. So, you have to watch for those and the laser ones - they come up a lot!

  2. Great "BC" last night! Hair is in a ponytail as promised. I was able to at least shower this morning...maybe could have had another glass of wine afterall! :)

  3. Thanks for inviting me to join RBTW! As you can see in the pretty picture, Eliz wasn't lying about my purple teeth... and I didn't even have 6 bottles last night!

  4. Girls,
    Looks like such a fun BC. I am super jeal that 2 of my fav people are now in BC, but am happy to watch the evolution.

    Love the pic so much, particularly Lisa's amazing positioning (again).

    Also, am seriously obsessed with the fact that the name Carmen Harlan has been written in the context of our blog. Channel 4 rocks.

    Miss you all!

    XOXO,
    Jamie

    PS-I am sad to see that BC-NY was not a discussion point! When are you all coming to visit???
