In October, this group is moving away from Meetup and moving to a new interface called Heylo. (Heylo.com). Please sign up on Heylo site and become a member of the Cookbook Book Club.

Cook a great recipe from our monthly cookbook selection and bring your entrée to the book club. We will discuss the book, your cooking issues and thoughts in preparing the dish and then we will taste the food prepared. Join us as we explore new recipes and evaluate the book. Sign up on the google doc spreadsheet which is located in each event listing.

List what entrée you’ll be bringing to the event. Please bring the entree that you prepare, as this is required in order to evaluate the cookbook. We will be meeting at the North University Community Library at 2 pm on a Sunday of the month. Bring your entree and a serving utencil, and your appetite.
