I am pleased to announce that, based on our on-line poll, The Girls Next Door Book Club members will be visiting the Henry Clay Frick Mansion for a "Victorian Christmas" on Saturday, December 15. And "thanks" to Dode who has agreed to host a post-Frick holiday celebration at her house immediately after our tour. The itinerary is as follows:
- Meet at Dode's (2700 Miles Avenue, Dormont, 15216) at approximately 2pm on Saturday, December 15
- Bring an appetizer, covered dish, or dessert with you for our holiday celebration which will begin after our trip to the "Frick." Dode will store it for you at her house while we are gone.
- Bring a used book that you love and would recommend to others with you for a "book exchange" - please wrap it so we can have some fun with this!
- Take 3 or 4 cars (depending on who all can make it) to the "Frick" for the mansion tour
- The tour is $12 and will take approximately 2 hours
- Return to Dode's house after the tour (about 5pm) to enjoy food and drinks - remember to BYOB
- Have a "book exchange" based on rules that we will discuss at the November meeting
I think that we will have a wonderful time and I hope that most people can make it since it seems to be the only date that will work for most people. I will try to get a "head count" at the November meeting so we know how many spots to reserve and Dode will know how many to plan for at our holiday celebration!

I am definitely going to teh Christmas at the Frick! Sounds fantastic!! Thanks for taking care of all the planning!
Yes, Debbie Thanks for setting this all up. I have one suggestion for November's meeting so that we don't have any duplicates is to make a list of what everyone is bringing to the luncheon or maybe even post it on here (Sue)
I like Sue's suggestion about what we are bringing for the luncheon.
Can I go too??
