Cookbook Club Do you love browsing through cookbooks
and trying new recipes? Do you enjoy sampling and sharing
new dishes? Part potluck, part discussion, the new Palisades
Free Library Cookbook Club is for you! Enjoy a glass
of wine with your meal, selected by the experts at The
Grape D’Vine (located in Sparkill). Here’s how it works: 1)
Stop by the Reference Desk to sign up and pick out a recipe
from the cookbook. 2) Library staff will make you a copy
of the recipe you select, or you can check out a copy of the
cookbook to take home. 3) Prepare the recipe at home and
bring it in on the night of the meeting to share with other
participants while we discuss the cookbook. Questions?!
Let us know!
