Lynn's Review

Bread and Wine

I read Bread and Wine by Shauna Niequist several years ago when it was a popular book recommended by bloggers. This book reminds us that food brings us together. Friendships are formed and memories are made over food. Food is the common ground that so often brings us together, and this books is a great reminder of that.
