T01446249114
Sister Elizabeth Donderstock is Squeamish, has been her whole life. She makes cheese balls (traditional and smoky) that sustain the existence of her entire religious community, Clusterhaven. However, she feels unappreciated among her Squeamish brethren, and she decides to try her luck in the outside world. Along the way she meets a Cockney-speaking Ukrainian immigrant couple who find her a job waiting tables at Plymouth Crock, a family restaurant run almost entirely by recovering alcoholics. The alcoholics love her. The customers love her. Things are going great for Liz, until she s offered a promotion to manager. Meanwhile, back at Clusterhaven, Liz s compatriots just can t seem to duplicate her cheese ball recipe, and it s going to cost them their quaint, cloistered lifestyle. They are panic stricken and desperate, and sure she sabotaged the recipe!
