Program Description

Event Details

This month, we will be discussing food that centers us in place. Whether you are cooking something that is personal to your homeplace or if you want to try experimenting with cooking from a culture unlike your own, come prepared to share your thoughts! 

Cooks and Books is a discussion group that will meet on the second Monday of every other month to share recipes and explore beautiful cookbooks together. Whether you love cooking an elaborate dinner or are just here for the food photography, Cooks and Books welcomes all experience and interest levels. 

It is not required to cook a dish to share with the group. It is very rare that food is shared during our meetings, rather we share photos of what we cook and discuss our successes and struggles in the kitchen, along with the cookbooks we use to guide us. You can share your food photos with Adult Programming Librarian Amanda Gibson via email amanda.gibson@kcpls.org

This program is part of the Otis Laury Nutritional Literacy Initiative.
