Our Cookbook Book Club is the perfect place for people who love trying new recipes, sharing good food, and gathering around a table with friends!

This month, we are cooking out of “Ready or Not” by Michelle Tam and Henry Fong. Pick a recipe from the cookbook that catches your eye, make it at home, and bring your delicious creation to the library to share with the group.

Then comes the best part: we gather around the table, sample everyone’s dishes, swap recipes and cooking stories, and enjoy a wonderful evening together!

Kinusaiga is a beautiful Japanese art form that creates pictures using pieces of fabric. Instead of sewing, the fabric is tucked into grooves in a pattern to create a colorful, textured design. It’s sometimes called “Japanese fabric mosaic art.”
