Reading. Cooking. Crafting. It's a book club for foodies, crafters, and multi-taskers that meets the last Thursday of every month. This book club features titles that relate to food. We'll meet and feed with dishes brought by book club members that relate to the book. Then, we'll craft and gab about that month's book. So bring your craft and sit, gab, munch, and work to your heart's content. November's book is "The Hundred Foot Journey" by Richard C. Morais. We provide the books. You bring the food. Free, open to the public for ages 18 +. It's good books, good crafts, and good eats.
