RENAMING CONTEST!!

"The time has come," the Walrus said,
"To talk of many things:
Of shoes--and ships--and sealing-wax--
and renaming our book clubs doings."
 -Lewis Carroll
(From Through the Looking-Glass and What Alice Found There, 1872)
***************************

The time has come to rename our beloved book club. "Book Klubbers" has been good to us but I feel that this is the right time to ask all of you to help participate in finding a name more suited to who we are now as a group of fabulous women who love to party, who delight in good food, who relish in learning and who love to read. 

I have considered many alternate names over the past year but felt that opening up and brainstorming of ideas with all of you amazing and creative ladies a better plan!

So, a deals a deal. You ALL agreed at our last meeting that you would do your best to contribute your own suggestions HERE on our blog where we could all feed off one anther's thoughts and ideas to hopefully come up with our permanent book club name so DON'T BE SHY, ALL OF YOUR IDEAS ARE GOOD IDEAS! You never know which of your ideas might inspire an idea for someone else.
 In return, I will reward the 1 or 2 ladies who come up with our new name with a $25.00 gift card to either Barnes & Noble or Amazon, your choice!


Rev up your inspiration, start your creative engines and let the contest begin!

*The contest will end on promptly on April 3rd at midnight
