Moveable Feast Luncheon in Pawley's Island
Earlier this week, I woke up much earlier than usual, put on a pretty dress, and drove out to Pawleys Island, South Carolina to brunch with thirty wonderful women at the charming Caffe Piccolo as part of the community’s Moveable Feast program, hosted in partnership with My Sister’s Books. We talked all things Evans women—growing up in the South, family recipes and traditions, and, of course, a little bit of monster slayin’—over gorgonzola-dressed salad, chicken piccata, and yummy cannolis.
It was SO MUCH FUN! An intimate, cozy event, I had the pleasure of having a lively dialogue about BLESS YOUR HEART, ANOTHER FINE MESS, and all things Evans women—those complicated, resilient, unforgettable characters who’ve lived in my imagination ever since their real-life counterparts passed on. We dug into themes of legacy, womanhood, secrets, and the kind of Southern strength passed down like family recipes. This was a spunky bunch of ladies—warm, welcoming, and absolutely hysterical. Unforgettable, really, just like the Evans women.
As always, I’m grateful for community, engagement, and the thoughtful questions, kind words, and vibrant energy each of these lovely ladies brought to the table. Afternoons like this are more than just book events—they’re reminders of the power of story to connect us.
A heartfelt thank you to My Sister’s Books for making it all possible, and to Caffe Piccolo for the delicious hospitality! Until next time—keep reading, keep gathering, and keep believing in the magic of a well-told tale!
