Our book choice for August 9th will be “The Lives of Diamond Bessie” by Jody Hadlock. Our featured winery is not a winery at all. We have managed to cover all the wineries on Leelanau Peninsula, save for a few that we are featuring when the season slows a bit for them. Therefore, we will be enjoying a special cocktail that pairs well with the book. This libation is just as unique as Diamond Bessie!

Along with each person’s RSVP, we will respond with the special recipe and the location of our meeting. We will be meeting virtually, as well as in-person for the first time. The zoom link will be sent as usual, Tuesday morning for those wish to join us that way!
