2011 Challenge: Foodie's Reading Challenge -- Wrap Up Post
Margot at Joyfully Retired hosted one of my favorite challenges in 2011: The Foodie's Reading Challenge! I am looking forward to the 2012 Foodies Read 2 Challenge.
I love reading books about food. I often read cookbooks cover-to-cover, like a narrative book. I had a lot of fun reading the books for this challenge.
I signed up at the "Bon Vivant" level to read four to six books. I stuck with books already on my TBR shelves.
