"In words, like weeds, I'll wrap me o'er,
Like coarsest clothes against the cold"

Last night I went to book club at Claire and David's bungalow in Ogden. It was a small group this month, and we had a lively discussion of The Razor's Edge as we analyzed how each of the characters chose to conduct their lives and find happiness. We laughed about Elliot the socialite, Larry the selfish wander, and Isabel's vanity over rich clothes and jewelry. Then we ate fantastic bruchetta and brie and fresh pineapple. I left feeling uplifted and refreshed and glad to know such interesting, real people.
