Moveable Feast: Loretta Ellsworth (The Jilted Countess)

Description

Join us for Moveable Feast, luncheons with exciting authors, artists, musicians and historians at area eateries.  
Book Synopsis: Returning author of "The French Winemaker's Daughter," delivers "The Jilted Countess," a new novel based on the true story of a desperate and penniless Hungarian countess who, long before reality TV made dating a competitive sport, arrives in Minnesota after WWII to find her GI fiancée already married, and with only two weeks to avoid returning to war-torn Europe, enlists a local newspaperman to help her find a husband in this richly detailed, unforgettable tale.

The Moveable Feast, founded and managed by Linda Ketron, is now in its 29^th year. Held at local restaurants weekly throughout the year on Tuesdays or Wednesdays when the presenter or the preferred venue is available, the presentation precedes the meal. For each Feast, the chef prepares a special menu. Food allergies are accommodated with advance notice; vegetarian option always available. Individuals, couples, friends, book clubs, and other small groups are assigned table seating. Although the per feast price has increased in response to increased food and labor costs at the restaurants, your gift certificates or unused three-fer credits will be honored.
