Do you enjoy cooking and trying new recipes? If so, why not join our Healthy Cookbook Club that meets one Monday of each month. The club chooses a different healthy cookbook to dive into for the month. Members check out a copy of the cookbook and spend time trying out the various recipes at home. When the group gathers the next month, we discuss the health benefits of the various recipes and share opinions of the meals tried. In addition, participants prepare and bring a sample of a recipe from the cookbook to share with the group.

On Monday, November 19^th, at 6:30 PM we will be discussing Michael Symon's book “5 in 5 For Every Season”. Register ASAP and come get a book so you can start the holiday season on a healthy foot!

This popular centerpiece will last for months and is perfect for your home or for those who want a small holiday tree to enjoy.
