Gardens and Book Clubs

 So uh, it's the weekend.

I've planted the beginnings of a small garden on my apartment patio/deck. I've got two tomatoes, a bell pepper, banana pepper, basil, thyme, and cilantro. It's gonna be epic, trust me. (Eventually, ok? eventually...)

Last week my pastor volunteered me to take over command of our church's book club. I'm thinking of covering Shane Claiborne's The Irresistible Revolution. It's kinda awesome. Apart from that, I have no idea what I'm doing. Any ideas or suggestions for making a book club work? I'd like it to have a lot of discussion, and maybe some activities. So far, all we do is show up, and no one has a clue what's going on, except that we've all read or are reading a common work. The dialogue is random and sparse, and we rarely stay on topic. I'd like to be able to change all that. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I'm off to start my weekend. You guys stay classy.

I'd say give it a little structure, like maybe pick several issues the book deals with and have a couple of people each week be prepared to talk about one and lead a discussion. But it probably should stay kind of informal so it is fun.


There's nothing better than growing things in a garden, except maybe eating them. I just started my first one in several years too. Enjoy.
