The Rum Diary

Hello everyone, it's Danielle, remember me???

I’m still in the book club, promise, and I will be at our next meeting at Kim’s for sure.

The Book: The meeting that is to follow has me as the host. I’ve chosen the book The Rum Diary by Hunter S. Thompson. Maybe let me know if you’ve already read it.
This is being made in to a movie (starring my boyfriend, Johnny Depp) so I was thinking we could watch the movie once it comes out – in 2011.

The Date: October 24, 6:30 pm. Be there or be square!

Food Theme: Seeing as the book takes place in Puerto Rico, I was thinking maybe we could have a Caribbean theme. ??? I'll do my research and update this post with some options.

Some recipe sites:
Caribbean Choice

Latin Caribbean Cuisine - Suite101.com (this one actually has some gluten free recipes – AMAZING!!!)

My Place: 327 Cambridge Street, Suite 2 (buzzer 2), just south of Gladstone, one block west of Bronson. Parking on either side of the street. Let me know if you have cat 'issues', cause BumbleBee wants to attend!

FYI, I will also be reading Fear and Loathing on the Campaign Trail ’72, also by Hunter S. Thompson, if anyone wants to join me.


Cheers,
Danielle
