Major Pettigrew's Last Stand by Helen Simonson
Two large glasses of decant claret in the middle of the day were not part of the Major's usual schedule. He had to admit that they imparted a rosy air to a luncheon that would otherwise have been stilted.
pg. 192
This book was quite enjoyable, easy to read and kind of sweet. It was good to be reminded of somethings. This book was also recommended for those who enjoyed The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society.

There are times a couple of glasses of alcohol can definitely put a rosier sheen to things, LOL. Nice snippet!

I just got given this book for Mothers Day (most precisely I put the book in my son's hands and said this is what I want).
Looking forward to reading it.
Interesting teaser. Mine is from Baby Proof.
Had never heard of any of the books you mentioned. Will have to check them out.

Thee are many an afternoon recently when a rosy air would be much appreciated. Great teaser. Enjoy!
I find that pineapple juice with coconut rum works for me :) Not at lunch though - have to drive a school bus in the afternoon!
Great teaser!!

Sometimes a rosy sheen in the middle of the day is...perfect!

I have this one at home. I've heard amazing reviews about it. Nice teaser. I have two teasers this week at The Crowded Leaf.
I like it and I adore the cover.
Here is my Teaser Tuesday :)
Sounds like luncheons are also not a usual part of his schedule.
sounds very good--and I do love the cover art. Thanks for stopping by today.
HA! Great quote. I'd say two glasses of mid-day alcohol might make quite the difference! Nice teaser.

I am curious about this book and hear mixed reviews. I am glad you thought it was sweet.
hmmmm... now I am hungry. Does the word luncheon ever have that effect on you? I read the most amazing book this week. I had used it for my Teaser Tuesday and loved it so much I decided to post my review today. Feel free to head over to my blog and check it out at http://EmmaMichaels.Blogspot.com and post your teaser in my comments!
