The Buxmont Cookbook Club

Are you a great cook? Do you enjoy cooking? Do you love the idea of being able to cook? Do you simply just enjoy eating?! Then this meetup is for you! :)

Join us at our first Cookbook Club Meetup! This idea has been brought up a few times over the years! We are going to give it a try! Please have patience with us as we figure out what this sort reoccurring event will look like and involve into. Just like our group's book-bookclub we hope to have some sort if rhythm with it once it gets going.

For this first event, my idea is to meet outdoors somewhere like a park. I figure this will allow as many to attend who wants to. We can decide on a time depending on what cookbook we choose to follow! So it could be brunch, lunch, dinner, and so on. If we do brunch/lunch I am thinking 11am-ish. Dinner 5pm-ish ( due to sunset). We can be flexible with this especially during different times of year.

We will need to first pick a cookbook to cook from. I am going to say lets try to aim for one that is "summery". My hope is over time we can expand and try different types of cuisine, seasonal types of cookbooks, and more. Please comment below with cookbook suggestions! I will create a survey monkey when we have a good amount and we can vote.

As for "housekeeping" details....
-Of course you do not need to buy a cookbook. We can post a picture of the table of contents with the recipes for you to choose from and then you can google the recipe or it can be shared by someone who owns it.
-We are going to ask all who are attending contribute $5 each cookbook club event you attend. This will go towards plates, napkins, cups, etc. If there is left over money we will put in an account to use towards other cookbook club expenses that may arise.
-We are going to be kind and encouraging to all who attend. We want everyone to attempt a recipe, so no buying premade and passing it off as homemade. Most cookbooks have a variety of different skill level recipes. Pick what you know you can handle! No judgment! This is suppose to be fun and about learning something new!
-Allergies--- If you have food allergies (like me! :) , please make sure you look over the signup and what everyone intends to bring, so you are aware of what may be there. We will make sure that each dish is known or labeled. Because of this please don't change your recipe last minute without communicating with the hosts. We can discuss allergy stuff more if needed.

Alright that is it for now! We'll address more details as we get closer! So let's start suggesting "summery" cookbooks!

*** I will create a link for a paypal pool for $5 a little later and post here :)
