Cookbook Club (Adults Only)

Do you love cooking and own more cookbooks than cook pots? Do you love reading recipes? Interested in sharing your cooking skills with a group of people who also love cooking and talking about it? If you resemble these remarks, our new Cookbook Club is for you!

Each month a theme such as vegan or cakes will be selected by the club’s leaders. Then you pick a recipe from any cookbook, make it, and bring it to share with the group. We’ll get together to taste test the recipes and talk about what worked, what didn’t, and what we thought of the book. It’s a book club for cooks. This is not simply a potluck club; you must want to cook and talk about it!

The Cookbook Club will meet on the last Sunday of every month from 1pm to 3pm. Space is limited! Therefore, registration is required with an option to be added to a wait-list. Remember, you can always reserve a cookbook online or simply call the library for assistance.

If you have any questions contact Edith Basir (ebasir@rlalibrary.org) or Alisha Smaby (asmaby@rlalibrary.org).

El Principito por Antoine de Saint-Exupery

Round Lake Area Public Library

23 de agosto

La historia de amor entre la joven Alma Belasco y el jardinero japonés Ichimei conduce al lector por un recorrido a través de diversos escenarios que van desde la Polonia de la Segunda Guerra Mundial hasta el San Francisco de nuestros días. R

Sobre el telón de fondo de un Afganistán respetuoso de sus ricas tradiciones ancestrales, la vida en Kabul durante el invierno de 1975 se desarrolla con toda la intensidad, la pujanza y el colorido de una ciudad confiada en su futuro e ignorante de que se avecina uno de los períodos más cruentos y tenebrosos que han padecido los milenarios pueblos que la habitan. R

El amante japonés por Isabel Allende

Uno de los clásicos de la literatura para niños, que en el criterio de muchos debe ser leído y comentado por un adulto, pero también un indiscutible libro para adultos. Mediante la figura de un principito que vive en su propio asteroide, el autor trata sobre los valores humanos y enseñanzas para la vida. R
