San Antonio's mayor, whom I dislike, has chosen an odd selection for the next citywide read. We've had "To Kill a Mockingbird" and "The Bicycle Thief" in the past. Now we're going to read "Art of the Pie: A Practical Guide to Homemade Crusts, Fillings and Life" by Kate McDermott. Very weird. But I look forward to chapter on rhubarb pie.
