What does the "BW" in the BW Ladies Book Club stand for?

 Bright and Witty, Beautiful and Wonderful, Brainy and Well-bred - Yes, well, something like that....

We have eightish members. Our club was established in 1998  We meet about once a month. This club is comprised of a variety of professional women who get together just for the fun of it. In addition to reading a book a month, we enjoy a bite out and each other's company.
