The Witch's Trinity by Erika Mailman
Chosen by: Michelle
Location: Axel's Bonfire Grill - St. Paul
Well, there we were again on another snowy winter night ready for the city to dazzle us with it's fabulous lighting displays. There was a pretty serious snow storm going on that we had to battle through to make it here tonight. Surprisingly, we ALL made it! All eight of us! Kerry arrived late as she had to scramble to find a sitter, and ordered some food to go. She then asked the waiter if he could put her beer into a "to go cup" because our limo was here. The funny thing is that it made so much sense to her at the time ;o)
We didn't speak much about the book, except for the fact that none of us read it, not even Michelle who normally loves scary stories. It was pretty creepy. I made it a few chapters, but didn't want to have bad dreams, so I quit. It was set in medieval Germany in a town suffering from hunger and bad crops for 2 years and they blame it on witchcraft. It's frightening, the mob mentality that is still very real today, and it frightening just what humans will do to each other in desperate times.
Some more exciting news: Ryan is expecting baby #3!!! She is showing a little bit but is all belly and is adorable. We didn't really have any token drunks this night. We are all getting too old I guess. Getting up with kids with a wee bit of a hangover isn't all that fun. After touring around, we came back to Bonfire and ordered some after dinner drinks and talked for a bit longer. I think we could talk forever if time allowed. Merry Christmas!
