Recipes for Reading – A Presentation and Discussion
Thursday, August 26, 1:00 pm

Join Anne Bower to discuss the cookbooks you love to read. Some of them tell stories about growing up, many are praise songs for a place or community, others tell history or give us the power to imagine ourselves more glamorous than we are. The pictures and writing in many a cookbook take us to exotic places. Some feel like short story collections, some are poetic, some tell of struggles.

Anne will offer examples of cookbooks she's found especially "good reads" and explain why. Of course, we cook from recipe books, but really--sometimes they're just wonderful reading!

Please bring along your favorite cookbook "reads" to share.
