Teaser Tuesdays -- Gilded

Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of http://shouldbereading.wordpress.com/ . Anyone can play along. Just do the following:
++Grab your current read
++Open to a random page
++Share two (2) “teaser” sentences from somewhere on that page. BE CAREFUL NOT TO INCLUDE SPOILERS! (make sure that what you share doesn’t give too much away! You don’t want to ruin the book for others!)
++Share the title and author so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers!
From Gilded How Newport Became America's Richest Resort by Deborah Davis    p. 82

Mamie, Fish, the third member of the Newport Social Strategy Board, was an unlikely candidate for the role because she was always breaking--then rewriting--the stuffy rules of society. Mamie decided that Newport dinners, often lasting three to four hours, were interminably long, so a meal at her house was a speedy affair.
