Cookbook club is growing!

Thanks to the 16 people who cooked and shared their dishes at yesterday's meeting.

We had a delicious lunch and great conversation about what went well and what was challenging during the preparation of our recipes.  There were mixed feeling about the how the recipes are written in The Nantucket Holiday Table. But everything tasted delicious!  Highlights for me were Harvard beets, curried parsnip soup, turkey-avocado-bacon sandwiches, and the ham chicken croquettes.

 I look forward to seeing everyone again in January for Paleo Lunches & Breakfasts by Diana Rodgers.  The best part: Diana might be with us to discuss her career as a cook and author! So, stay tuned!

Registration for the January 5 meeting starts on Thursday, December 22. Copies of the book will be available starting on Dec. 22 also. Starting on Dec. 22, click here to see which recipes have already been claimed.   And click here to report which recipe you've selected.

Check out the Cookbook Club blog for all the details.  You all can post comments on some of the blog pages (including Home, List of Claimed Recipes, Cookbooks Discussed). 

You can also subscribe to the blog via email...so don't miss new posts and comments in between our meetings.  I'll be posting about our newly arrived cookbooks and other cooking/food related topics throughout the month. (see the Follow by email section in the right hand column).
