Cookbook Club
Forest Lodge Library 13450 County Highway M, Cable, WI, United StatesMay’s Cookbook Club focus is Mexican! The cookbook chosen for this month is: In Edith’s Kitchen: Recipes from My Mostly Mexican-American Home to Yours by Edith Galvez. If you are interested in join this month’s Cookbook Club (open to all), please let Director Westlund know! Email at: awestlund@cable.wislib.org. How Cookbook Club works: Come to the library and check out the featured cookbook. Take it home to explore and pick one recipe (you can make a copy of the recipe at the library or take a photo – this does not infringe on copyright laws) that you would be willing and able to make to bring to the Cookbook Club meeting to share.

Let Director Westlund know your choice so she can list that it has been taken (so we can avoid doubles) on the website. Prepare your dish and bring it, you, and a guest with to the Cookbook Club meeting! When everyone has arrived we’ll eat, chat, discuss the cookbook, clean up and go! Cookbook Club usually only lasts for […]
