Book Club Ideas Part 1 for "The Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe" {by C.S. Lewis}


“To the glistening eastern sea, I give you Queen Lucy the Valiant. To the great western woods, King Edmund the Just. To the radiant southern sun, Queen Susan the Gentle. And to the clear northern skies, I give you King Peter the Magnificent. Once a king or queen of Narnia, always a king or queen of Narnia. May your wisdom grace us until the stars rain down from the heavens.” 

― C.S. LewisThe Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe



We read "The Lion, the Witch & the Wardrobe" for our December book and decided to celebrate the release of winter in Naria and the approach of Christmas by hosting a feast in honor of Aslan.

Wrong will be right, when Aslan comes in sight,At the sound of his roar, sorrows will be no more,When he bares his teeth, winter meets its death,And when he shakes his mane, we shall have spring again."-C.S. Lewis, The Lion, the Witch & the Wardrobe




{Drinks}

What better drinks to have for a Christmas party than Egg Nog and Sparkling Cider.
