Dames Who Read, Oct. 21 at 6PM

Dames Who Read: Queen of the Turtle Derby and Other Southern Phenomena, by Julia Reed.

Food writer Jeffrey Steingarten calls Reed’s writing “funny and addictive, blending the street smarts of Greenville, Mississippi, where 'girls are taught to drink Scotch and smoke cigarettes and drive a car by the time they are twelve,' with the sophistication of a globe-trotting journalist. Julia's favorite subjects are Southern--fashion, politics, and above all food, which she describes with irresistible affection, knowledge, and delight."
​
Monday, October 21: Hybrid meeting (in person and Zoom), hosted by Janet Cam and Bonnie Benwick, who will be preparing a seated dinner (limited to 10) made with recipes from the book.

Dinner starts at 6:30, discussion starts at 7. Location is Janet’s house at 12608 Exchange Court N, Potomac, Md.
