The McHenry Area Chamber of Commerce WINGs professional women’s group invites women to its High Tea luncheon at 11:30 a.m. Jan. 16 at the Shah Center, 4100 W. Shamrock Lane, McHenry.

Participants will enjoy assorted teas, specialty sandwiches, scones, lemon curd, fruits and desserts.  

Dramatic book reviewer Jenny Riddle will take attendees on the journeys of three interesting authors. Grant Achatz, who wrote "Life On the Line," is Chicago’s own renowned chef. That beautiful plate of food you’re served has a lot of heartache, joy, and sheer creativity behind it, especially in Achatz’s case because he had to overcome tongue cancer.
