After relishing appetizers and entrees, there's a dazzling array of desserts, including Carrot Pudding (Charles Dickens's "A Christmas Carol); Effie Belle's Coconut Cake (Olive Ann Burns's "Cold Sassy Tree); and the kids will love C.S. Lewis's Turkish Delight from "The Lion, The Witch, and the Wardrobe.
