Book Club Recipes and Meals

I belong to a book club and our slogan is "We read to eat"...which means that we pick books and titles of books that will allow us to create a wonderful food theme related to the book...the book "The Lobster Chronicles" wasn't a great read, but a great theme for a Maine-style lobster bake! Our group has met for over 8 years and I am really looking forward to posting some of our theme meals..."The Life of Pi", and "Angry Housewives Eating Bon Bons" both come to mind right away. We are also known to "Read between the wines...or whines" but I will spare the readers here from that particular topic

This month we are reading "The Tiger's Wife"...any suggestions for Baltic or Russian foods? Post them on the comments and I will try the recipe and report back.
